    It’s Google’s world and handset makers just live in it http://j.mp/EkIUb

    Google’s Android team directly assisted Motorola and Verizon in building the Droid’s software from the ground up and is currently assisting another, unknown, handset maker in Korea to create a finely-tuned hardware and software combination.

    I don't think this is anything new. Google helped with HTC with their Android v1 and v1.5 devices. I find the Crunchgear article very shortsighted and poorly researched, as if the author suddenly realized (now after years of close contact and collaboration btw HTC, Google, Motorola, and the entire Open Handset Alliance) that Google helping Motorola with the Droid is something special and out of the ordinary. The commentators in the article provides a variety of much better analysis than the original article. One comment implies that HTC also got early access to the Android 2 source, so it's not as if Google is playing "favourites" to one particular manufacture over another.
