Regarding Sun Microsystems fighting Google... well, this is definitely a possibility, although it would be very silly of Sun. Now it tries to protect a pie that it can't eat by itself. Instead, it should share it with the other guys, who bring food to the party. I think Google has much more momentum, driving force, and resources right now than any of the opposition (Sun, Microsoft, et al)... These guys can slow the process a bit, if they work hard, but they can't stop the progress. The truth of the matter is that all (and I mean ALL) mobile phones suck today. Including iPhone. And them being very closed and restricted is one of the reasons for that sucking. There is a need for an open mobile platform, and this need will be satisfied eventually. If Google won't do (although I think that will), somebody else will... Sun or not, Microsoft or not, etc... Andrey,

With every day the story becomes more and more interesting. I do believe that it will continue with some trials on patenting of Java technologies, however will Sun have enough of stamina to fight with Google?..Doubt about that There are some updates from OnJava blog from O’Reilly network.
