Do you need one? My OH got his 1st smartphone a couple of weeks ago and just asked me about this ... I had never even thought of it.

Any thoughts?

Not really as there haven't been any major security issues with Android phones so far. Nerds and geeks will probably post here telling you about the small handful which have been reported but as I said it hasn't been a major problem as yet.

It's a good idea to have some sort of AV on there though, have a look in the Market for Lookout or AVG, both free and good quality.
