There seems to be quite a degree of flexibility. I have an HTC Android phone; it has HTC's 'Sense' UI, which looks a lot like it does on HTC's Windows phones, and it has a non-Google Maps navigation app pre-installed, and it's own non-Gmail mail client. It still passes muster enough to also have access to all the Google goodies, and the marketplace.
