There is no "The Android". This is just the first device that will use Google's new OS and that is why people are excited. This is a powerful and versatile OS that will compete with WinMo and others for the mobile market. It's the kind of thing you can run on a PMP, carputer, smartphone, etc. and allows free access to hundreds of free and open apps. Any time a new competitor (especially one as respected as Google) makes an entry into the mobile OS market, phone geeks will be psyched.
Whether or not you like the G1 is almost secondary as it is just the first of many Android-based devices to come. I like the competition so that's why I am excited
