I'm guessing the bubbles will stay the different colors, which is all apple really cares about. They get a /lot/ of sales on bubble color. So keep the regulators who want to open up imessage to others at bay and keep the primary benefit to apple. As a bonus, it's less terrible in general for all of us.
Win-win-win.
So will Google shut the fuck up about it now?
