Sorry, but it is a competitor. Many of these phones that are being sold are the official, "Google branded" version. That means Google has certain deals in place with the carriers. Also, they are making Google search and there other properties default on Android, no matter which way you put. They make more money if you are using an Android device (Google is embedded everywhere in it) unlike other platforms. This DOES make them an anti-trust concern. Google Voice is also provided for free as well, and guess what. Google Voice is getting investigated by the FTC. |

This is support for my post--they are pushing the experience that provides the best access to their services.

Provide a source for what you are claiming as fact.

Again, source needed. The FTC investigated the interlocking boards of Apple and Google, but that had nothing to do with Google Voice--it had to do with people serving on both boards.
The FCC is questioning Google about Voice blocking certain numbers, but that has nothing to do with Android or anti-trust issues. The FCC also sent letters asking about the Google Voice rejection on the iPhone, but, again, it had nothing to do with Android or anti-trust concerns on Google's behalf.
