Tying an ecosystem into the hardware allows a better experience, a more mature product, and a more stable software, total control but in a good way.
Because the company owns everything, it gives you more control over drivers and software design in general. Otherwise, the patches are more difficult to deploy and the portability to other devices is also limited. That's why HP bought webOs and that's why Google bought Motorola cellphone division.
I should not expect same support from Google on any future Android devices which are not Motorola. They will push their Motorola devices for sure, instead of Samsung of any other major brand, like HTC.
