i have ordered one from tmobile and awaiting delivery. in the meantime i went to carphone warehouse and played with it. nothing to fault. i have an iphone and have been a fanboi of it. however, the desire's multitouch is very good, changing screens is fast, opening programs are speedy and the keyboard is good as well, well, better than iphone as it is slightly wider

Think of it this way, higher speed means less time waiting for things to load, means better battery life

about the multitouch, it is pretty good. accurate enough for normal usage, text input is good as well. definitely, iphone is better, but then by only 5% at most. the speedy proc enables multitasking which is good, load your RSS feeds and weather while u surf the net or reply a text while playing pandora/spotify/lastfm... its seamless though the leap view is kinda slow and not 100% smooth.

but about screen quality, there's none of the boring 16 apps on your homescreen + 4 on the dock. u can customize it.. no matter how u customize the iphone only can see 16 apps that just move around... non functioning i should say.

i have not tried the notifications on the desire (delayed due to lack of stock here in uk) but hopefully, it works better than the in-your-face pop outs (sometimes, i can get 3 pop-ups in 1 go, text, fb and ebay)...

depends on browser

hopefully mine will arrive today

Got mine already.. LOL... perfect!!!!

playing with it right now!!! dumbass screen protector from germany kononnya so lousy... any recommendations?

any top 10 app list or something to help me out here? thanks!

Its a good phone... accurate gps, nice Layar reality browser, very geeky. haha...
build quality is good, hate the nokia-ish rear cover, prefer legend type, but then, its ok.
notification led is nice
nice sounds, loud speakers
touchscreen accuracy and predictability loses out to iphone
love the back and home button...

apparently, the guy who does the rooting for android is in the UK.. hehehe,...

I help u get from UK, ready stock hahahaha.... unlocked somemore and no branding!!! hahahahhahah... but its around 450 pounds

HTC Desire is out with Turn by turn navigation:)

and no, Desire is only brown at the momet

OMG really? 2.2??? I can't wait!!!! then i can play Farmville on the desire!!! WOOHOO

bye bye nexus 1

Just joking...

adding support for Desire!!!

anyways, my gf's desire got stolen in the mail... DAMN THOSE ROYALMAIL

Unless and until you have both, kindly refrain from making sweeping comments / one sided comments..

Can get it from so many retailers in UK and get it sent worldwide unlocked.

Android games are usually not as good as iPhone
1. latecomer
2. can't install to sd card due to linux limitation so have space limitation thus limited good games..

but, there are alot of games that can pass your time really quick
1. Abduction
2. Doodle Jump
3. Robodefence
4. Jewels
