The tone is only slightly sell shrill. He's still pushing the same message.
Perhaps his handlers told him to tone it down, since he was drawing so much
flack.

a couple of possibilities

I wonder if Flo is either trying to slow the rate at which he discredits himself
or he is courting new Johns to pay his bills. As for not being so quick to make
himself look ridiculous, it's not like he could speed things up, so maybe he is
just getting tired and slowing the pace?

impossible. It's been one article and you're going to act as
if a leopard has changed their spots?

Give it a year without being under contract from ms/oracle,
then we might be talking.

No, not really

He basically believes that:

"There are many parties litigating against Android (as
everyone should because Android is the scourge of the
universe). They all have lots of patents, all of them valid
and of great value. Android vendors have patents, but they are
all invalid and/or of little value. Even if some/many/most of
the anti-Android patents are deemed invalid, there will still
be enough to doom Android"

No. It was riddled with errors.
