Thanks Josh, I agree. But "Action overflow" has its problem also:
When there are any hidden actions, you do see the button. It's OK.
But when you don't see these "three vertical dots" anywhere, you're nervous because you don't have any proof that you didn't miss these "three dots"?! In this case having hardware "Action overflow" button (new name for the same old hardware "Menu" button) is a noticeable advantage, because you may always explicitly "check for hidden options"! I really see the need in such check when I'm searching and cannot find additional options in a application.
Conclusion: Hardware "Action overflow" button (new name for the same old hardware "Menu" button) is a good backup for the onscreen "Action overflow" button and it may be seen as a nice option for Android v.3+ devices.
