Google (NSDQ: GOOG) feels it’s not getting credit for how strong sales of Android-powered phones are, so CEO Eric Schmidt is going on the offensive, telling shareholders that the company’s partners are shipping at least 65,000 handsets with the Google open-source operating system every day, according to AFP. Schmidt’s comments follow market researcher NPD’s report that the dozen or so Android-based smartphones have out-sold Apple’s one and only iPhone. In February, Schmidt said that 60,000 Android devices were being shipped each day.
