Ha!

Android won't disappear. And the market share battle isn't over by any means. I think Apple has the upper hand right now, and a solid iPhone 5 (and iOS 6) would certainly give the Android phone makers fits.

I believe Windows Phone will start to eat away at Android's share over the next several months.

> Android's withdrawal from the market!

I think its a distinct possibility that Google will abandon development on Android.

Its nice to see I'm not the only person who doesn't consider that idea far fetched. Stranger things have happened.

Google's not makin' any real money on it. Samsung and HTC would be dead in the water without it so they would be FORCED to pick up the burden. They'd have no choice. And Google would still have them over the barrel having ownership of the patents. The Android phone makers are really at the mercy of "do no evil" and do no evil can do what ever the hell they like.

It could very well happen, and would not surprise me.
