I don't think G will end the relationship: even with Chrome out there, why should they shoot in the leg of the main open source product that is biting MS in the ass? That would be illogical. If anything, they will push both Chrome and Firefox, as IE is still the main player. And people at G have long memories: they'll never forget what happened to Netscape, they won't let Firefox go down that way.

Firefox is bringing tons of traffic to G, and that's for chump-change in the scale of things.

I think this statement is more Firefox trying to remind G that, Chrome or not, G needs Firefox. Otherwise, IE will rule again and all of a sudden G Docs and Gmail will be very very very slow to load, I wonder why.
