Yeah, I'm feeling the pain too. Damn tired of waiting. Neck also long already. Have been waiting for so many product launches. The 3GS was particularly annoying. Then Desire and I bet.. the next new iPhone will be the same.

I know Terry selling but his stock still dunno when arrive. If he had ready stock this weekend I would've bought......nvm, just have to be patient I suppose. Another option is buy from HK as I have a friend coming from there, for around 2.4K I can get the Desire, spare battery, leather case and 16GB MicroSDHC, but still have to wait till May!

i dun see why is it so not possible.. android is open source and current hardware isnt so expensive any longer.

competitive market will definitely brings price down to drive sales. in anyway, HTC gain the most since both device manufactured by them.

Price breakdwon:

GBP 330 + 34 shipping = GBP 364

Convert to RM = RM 1830

SIRIM = RM215 and tax around RM128.14

Total = RM 2173

Actually not bad if buying from Clove, but the thing is now the volcanic ashes in Iceland causing all flights cease to operate, we wont know when will the package arrive

Bad thing is the warranty is 2 yrs covered by Clove which u have to send it back to UK if something happen to the phone

Sounds good but what's the process for SIRIM approval? Should be quite a hassle me thinks.

Right except that there's no competitive pricing in Malaysia biggrin.gif. We know Motorola Milestone is priced around RM2200. The X10 is a long way above RM2600(?). We know HTC Legend is priced at RM1999. We also know HTC Desire is among the most sought after phone for 2010 (at least Q2-Q3). SIS will have to price the Desire to undercut Milestone but without cannibalizing the Legend. Legend cannot reduce price at this moment because of all the price point below for other HTC products.

It simple to say, move and all the price automatically adjusts itself. The problem with new gadgets are it is almost 100% fueled by enthusiasts like us. The first round would be a blood fest because we would all die to get one. We're OK with any price as long as we can get it. As a result, no matter what price they position the Desire.. it is highly likely that it will be successful. Elastic/non-elastic pricing. Doesn't matter how much it is worth underneath that plastic. It sells.

Bottom line, worst case scenario --> same price as Nexus One (RM2400). Best case scenario below or same as Milestone (RM2099 or RM2199). If Legend moves down the pricing (highly unlikely), we're all good.
