According to Google, 550,000  Androids are now activated every day and there have been more than 6  billion App downloads.    Google is categorizing Android as a "high consumer success" product,  next to Chrome and YouTube. Page noted that Google is heavily investing  in those segments to ensure their "long-term success." Android appears  to be especially growing like a weed as the activation count was at just  500,000 per day a month ago and the total device count was at just 100  million two months ago. Google noted that more than 250,000 apps are now  available for Android.    Page also briefly commented on the patent situation of Android and  told investors that Google is building its defense against lawsuits.  "Obviously we have a number of intellectual property patents in progress  not just already issued." However, he deflected the question by an  analyst, by simply adding more numbers explaining the success of  Android: 400 different devices, 39 OEMs, 231 carriers in 123 countries:  "And that velocity is only increasing. Despite the efforts of some of  our competitors, there hasn't been any slowdown in any of those things,"  Page said.    Of course, that may make Android an even more attractive patent suit  target. According to Spencer Wang, an analyst with Credit Suisse, Google  holds only about 650 patents in total, which less than the number of  patents IBM gets approved every 2 months.</blockquote>
