Well Google and Samsung just reached an agreement about Sammy's future apps : from now on, no more Sammy's own apps that would overshadow Google's, no magazine UI, etc.
Google knows that Samsung dominates the Android market, and that the average consumer is more familiar with Samsung than with Android.
