Google is diving IN.
Its the shot gun marketing plan.
SPLATTER at everything and see what HITS and works.
NONE of the current corps remember HOW this works. The current CORPS, including APPLE. Throw OVER PRICED CRAP at us and expect us to DEAL with it.
Google is running after all the markets and forcing them to DEAL with it, or MAKE something better.
GE is STILL more of a monopoly then Google. I wont even mention the M company.
