I would go back and convince Google to, from the beginning, request (or require) manufacturers to commit to keeping handsets supported and up to date with the latest OS (if possible). I would hope that this would a) Convince OEMs to release less models so they had less to support i.e. concentrating on a few rather than flooding the market with every variation possible b) maybe convince the OEMs to "take it easy" on their custom overlays to allow for easier updating during OS version changes c) if OEMs are spending less time developing their own overlays/skins they'd be concentrating more on the stock software and thus contributing back code accelerating the improvement of the core OS
