Before the presentation of the first model of iPhone, Google intention to launch Android without support for touch screens, but Apple's new product convinced them to completely change their strategy.
Android was developed to be used only with physical keyboards, with Google intending to implement support for touchscreens at some point, with the introduction of the iPhone hastening this moment. More precisely, Google completely changed its strategy after the presentation of the iPhone 2G, asking its partners to implement Android with mandatory support for touch screens, but also with support for multiple simultaneous touches.
