+<p>The Google USB driver is a downloadable component for the Android SDK, available
+from the SDK Manager. The driver is for Windows only and provides the necessary drivers for the
+following devices:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>ADP1 / T-Mobile G1*</li>
+ <li>ADP2 / Google Ion / T-Mobile myTouch 3G*</li>
+ <li>Verizon Droid*</li>
+ <li>Nexus One</li>
+ <li>Nexus S</li>
+ </ul>
+ <p>* <em>Or similar hardware on other carriers</em></p>
+
+ <p>All other devices require Windows drivers provided by the hardware manufacturer, as listed in
+the <a href="{@docRoot}tools/extras/oem-usb.html">OEM USB Drivers</a> document. The Galaxy Nexus
+driver is also distributed by <a
+href="http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/verizon-wireless/SCH-I515MSAVZW">Samsung</a>
+(listed as model SCH-I515).</p>
+
+<p class="note"><strong>Note:</strong>
+If you're developing on Mac OS X or Linux, then you do not need to install a USB driver. To start
+developing with your device, also read <a href="{@docRoot}tools/device.html">Using
+Hardware Devices</a>.</p>

+<p>The USB Driver for Windows is available for download as an optional SDK
+component. You need the driver only if you are developing on Windows and
+want to connect an Android-powered device (ADP, Nexus One, or Nexus S) to your
+development environment over USB. </p>
+
+<p>To download the driver, use the Android SDK Manager tool that is
+included with the <a href="{@docRoot}sdk/index.html">Android SDK</a>:</p>
+<ol>
+ <li>Launch the Android SDK Manager by double-clicking <code>SDK Manager.exe</code>,
+ at the root of your SDK directory.</li>
+ <li>Expand <em>Extras</em>.</li>
+ <li>Check <strong>Google USB Driver package</strong> and click <strong>Install</strong>.</li>
+ <li>Proceed to install the package. When done, the driver files are
+downloaded into the <code>&lt;sdk&gt;\extras\google\usb_driver\</code> directory.</li>
+</ol>
