An OTA is an over the air update for the device. Instead of needing to plug your G1 into your computer to update the firmware/software, the G1 regularly “checks in” to see if there are any new updates (similar to how Windows gets new updates). If there is a new update made available the G1 will download it and prompt you to install.
