If I where Larry Page, I'd kill Chrome OS and make it's Team join the Android Team to attempt to make it catch up with iOS in terms of UX and stability. Android is selling out iPhone, but there are issues like the fact Android users are downloading less paid Apps and spending less money on content compared to iOS users. Google should improve Android platform's ROI to Developers so we keep making/improving Apps before Windows Phone gains traction.
Having the talented Motorola Mobility Team there they should let them help to correct the annoying and growing problem of fragmentation. I'm not an expert on hardware but I think Google should create a closely tied android-hardware-software core "template" (display adapters, ports, touch features, main board, cpu slot, memory slots, camera, gps, accelerometer, sensors and other chips) and make it available to all Android Devices manufacturers for free, letting them add just a little a layer of their own stuff, but they should not let them mess with that core "template", neither the hardware or the software. Manufacturers would be free to make the handsets and tablets look like they want... and have the cpu/memory they want and to put whatever glass or plastic facet they want.
Google should use the Open Handset Alliance as I imagined they intended to do it from the beginning, to really come together with ALL the Industry (in the same way Sun Microsystems did with the Java Community Process or JCP to improve Java for years) to improve the "template".
