    Some things to possibly expect:

    • Music Service
    • New Version of Android
    • Revamped Google Maps
    • More on Google Glass
    • Possibly a new Nexus 7

    hoping for an updated Nexus 7. LTE in my N4 isn't as big a factor for me. I want to be able to move from my phone to my tablet and not dread the performance degradation.

    I'm definitely considering going to Android now. I'm going to wait out what happens at Apple WWDC next month before I decide though.

    Google is flat out bossing in this I/O.

    Interesting how they made a point of demonstrating their huge data advantage over Apple re-Maps.

    And this hot words search thing has me bothered. Can I trust Google to not be listening to me when I'm not specifically talking to it?

    One thing that Apple will never catch up to on the level of Google is accessing data.... from searches to maps Google is pure win.

    Google really hates Microsoft. At least more than it does Apple.

    They refuse to make any apps for windows phone.
