Not looking good for Google. Those e-mails says a lot about Google no matter whether they will be allowed as evidence or not (already in public domain). More proof that "Do no evil" has a different meaning to Google than what we assume/understand it to be.

Oracle, and not MS + Apple, might sink Android it seems. All recent events considered I would run away from Android if I was Samsung/Google/HTC/etc. And no, according to FOSSpatents the MM patents will not protect Google against Oracle.

" It's certainly remarkable that those two emails show a consistent attitude: the Android team basically says "let's just infringe" whenever an intellectual property issue comes up. If they did this to Oracle, what about the intellectual property of other companies like*Apple,*Microsoft,*eBay*and*Skyhook?"
