Each user brings the Google Android $ 6 per year
In general, all users of Android (the number of which amounts to 22.5 million) Google earned 133 million dollars in 2010 (ie $ 6 each). By the end of the world in 2012, according to calculations Piper Jaffray, Google is earning $ 10 a user, or as much as $ 1.3 billion a year from all users of Android.
It is clear that the operating system Android is free. Google in this case, receives royalties from the sale of applications (as well as the sale of virtual goods in applications themselves), and advertising. And the expected increase in profit is partly due to the recent modernization of Android Market.
Given that the Google Android operating system brings a profit, we can assume that the development of the OS in the foreseeable future is unlikely to reduce the heat.
