But GoogleTV is another loss leader that hasn't really shown any ROI for Google. It just seems to me that they are starting to spread themselves very thin, do everything, yet all of their revenue still comes from their core product -- adwords and search.

This deal also gives Google control over Motos set-top box buisness, I was hopeful for a Google TV intergrated STB, but I think it is far more likely that Google will be selling off the STB side of the business.

I think we have to play a wait and see game here. Losing market share of a business that generates little profit ( the Android OS) may not be bad if you develop a phone business anywhere near as profitable as the iPhone. Market share and profits are not the same thing. They might also provide hardware guidelines to the licensees to help the end user get a better experience with Android. While there are potentially bad scenarios out there, not all of them are bad. let's give the benefit of the doubt to the Google management and wait to see what emerges.
