The Google I/O app was made by Google to help attendees to the conference track which sessions they want to watch and see the entire schedule. I was wondering if it was available as open source since it has some good UI design and usability patterns.

I am also looking for it, but I couldn't find it.
Twitter app is also very similar and it will be opensource, so I guess we'll have to wait.

Indeed, they highlighted many of the UI patterns of that app on their blog: http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/05/twitter-for-android-closer-look-at.html

I don't think it is Open Source because
- Google Android Apps are usually not open source (Gmail, GMaps, Youtube etc... are not part of the Android OS, but are proprietary apps)
- There was no anoucement it was going to be Open Source.
I might be wrong though.

The best indication of their open source code is usually the presence of it on Google Code.
A few quick searches revealed nothing on there, so it isn't there now.
It's also unlikely to appear since it's such a small program and they only usually open the source to applications they intend development to continue for.

I was hoping the Google I/O 2010 app would be released as open source for exactly the reasons stated in the question.
The Google I/O 2009 was released as open source and proved very useful, examining the code as a learning exercise.
I would imagine the code will probably appear at:

The recent release of the Google My Tracks app lives at code.google.com.

Apparently as of today they have not put the code out there yet, but here's where I found it will potentially reside:
