LG unveiled its first smartphone based on Google's Android platform on Monday. The LG-GW620 is full touchscreen device with a slide-out keyboard, very similar in form factor to the HTC Touch Pro2.

I discussed the destiny of Google Android with TechVi host Randall Bennett and PC Magazine's Brian Heater on Monday's episode of TechVi. You can watch the eight-minute video below:
