Hmmm....

I wonder if this has something to do with Apple rejecting the Google Voice app...?
I thought the same exact thing when I saw this headline.

I think that was the tipping point for him but from what I read its because Google is now in direct competition with apple. They have Android competing with the iphone and their Chrome OS going to compete with OSX.

'Bout time

With Schmidt resigning, this will allow Google to focus hard on it's emerging OSes (Android and Chrome), that way they aren't limited to please Apple (e.g. lack of multi-touch in current versions of Android) and releasing key services on iPhone before Android (update Maps, Google Search w/ Voice, etc.). I was also wondering why Google said they weren't going to initially include Multi-Touch in 2.0 (leaving it to the manufacturer to support it) to multi-touch being in the current 2.0 developer builds, but now it makes sense.

It does make sense. This is a good move(no a great move). As you stated, Google is positioning themselves to go the next level and with Apple constraints, Google could not move fcrword. Apple will slowly fragment their standing if they stay the curren...
