The HTC Dream, also known as the T-Mobile G1, spearheaded Google's push into the smartphone space. It was the first commercially-available Android device, and it changed the entire landscape of mobile communication.

But it didn't always seem destined for success, especially considering its mushy keyboard, smallish screen, and big honking chin. The G1 could have gone either way, and now it's time to examine just what drove it down the path to success. For the first time ever on Pocketnow, we'll be doing that with the assistance of tweets from our audience, sent in after our G1 unboxing this morning.

Tune in to our G1/Dream Throwback Review for a brief look over our collective geek shoulder at the start of Android, then stay tuned for much more from Pocketnow in the other direction: the days, weeks, and months ahead.

Thanks to all who took the time to tweet us!
