Legend is using 600Mhz while Desire using Snapdragon 1Ghz Since its Android, should be cheaper.. Way cheaper than HTC HD2 if it comes out!
In my opinion, the Legend is supposed to replace the Hero while introducing Desire to be the new high end Android device. HTC currently runs two family of products: WM and Android. It will have a high end model on each family line. On the WM side, we have HD2 so it is obvious that Desire will be high end on the Android family line. If we already have a mid-model SKU like the Hero and Legend is already replacing it and the debut price was around RM2.2k above (retail), I guess Desire would hit the RM2.6k above mark (retail).
By the way, HD2 and Desire most likely shares the same hardware platform (same processor, same amount of memory). Only the software side is different. And that different is cost lies in the software development (both have Sense UI) and OS license which technically is free.
worth the money, even if it costs about 2.8k~ well let's not compare with Nexus One, previously Hero's price was 2.3k, and we have almost double the spec here without double the price. even so, the legend is coming, and expected to be reasonably priced XD

cant wait!
That's true....don't know when HTC Malaysia will issue this model.
I wonder what will happen to this product line if Apple win their patent sue against HTC.
That lawsuit is gonna take months before a ruling is in place. We're expecting HTC to counter sue and that alone is gonna take weeks. No trial dates has been set yet. So I'm not worried.

Expect the phone to be cheaper than Nexus One, HTC mentioned that they took out pricey hardware to cut cost, for example noise canceling mic and the dock that you get in the Nexus One.

I dont think that site is for Malaysian release. It just shows your current location on the home screen. If you click 'pre-register', it lists telcos from UK.

Yeah, may not be a worldwide release. I have a feeling it will be sometime in the middle of April. Even then availability will be low.
