And quite frankly, we had better hope it doesn't. Competition breeds innovation. If the river that feeds a lake dries up, it becomes stagnant.
And what Android needs to shoot for is the true big fish: RIM.

This exactly, just take a look at the original android and you can see the vast GUI improvements that were brought about by competition with ios. I'm certainly very anti-apple almost as much as I am anti-religion but I wouldn't like them to disappear just yet (and they're not going to either). Your also right that android should aim compete with RIM. There is always somebody around here looking for better outlook integration, remote wipe and storage encryption.
