While the technology industry remains baffled
about why Google decided to acquire Motorola Mobility, I have
spotlighted one of the key assets that is largely being overlooked in
the deal: Motorola’s Webtop software. In an in-depth report for TechRepublic’s sister site CNET,
you can read about how Webtop snuck up on the tech world, the power of
Webtop 2.0, and my analysis of how Google could effectively use Webtop
to give Android a big boost in its race against Apple and Microsoft in
the post-PC world.
This topic also has major enterprise implications as well. If Google were to integrate Webtop into the next version of Android then it would create a huge market of smartphones that could dock and serve as thin client devices, accessing the Web and Citrix. These PC replacements could pose a big challenge to the stranglehold that Microsoft Windows has on the enterprise.

Takeaway: Google
is about to take possession of a software weapon that it could fire at
Apple and Microsoft, but it’s unclear whether it will push the button.
