"Defending Android"

You’ll notice a common phrase amongst all the Android partners that have weighed in on the Google Motorola purchase so far. 

Do they like that Google is buying a competitor? Of course not, why would they? BUT, they clearly realize this was one of the only ways for Google to offer Android patent protection.

That’s what every single statement is about. It has nothing to do with Google “supercharging” Android. Just “defending” it.
