Till now it seemed that Android was in a dangerous enviroment which has lots of threats from its eco-system.
Well the acquasition of Motorola Mobility is proovinig to be a Gold mine for google in porder to resist the attacks from apple and Microsoft.

For the starters...
One patent from 2001 disables a "touch sensitive" sensor when a smartphone is near a user’s head to prevent inadvertent hang-ups or dialing. Another from 1994 aims to increase data storage, while a third enables users to control when a global positioning system sends their location data over a network.
Well it all looks quite beautiful again for Android...
