Google X was a project released by Google Labs on March 15, 2005. It was rescinded a day later. Does any one know why and the history behind this ??

I can't find cohesive info on this product line of google's!!

They never revealed the answer to that. Guess it was either Apple putting them under pressure (which would've been remarkably quick) or some Googler (e.g. Google's lawyer) realizing this is too much of a copy.
