    Heh, sorry mate. But its an ongoing thing. Like I said the only way is to create a 'dummy' phone contact with a photo and link the two.

    Re: The Official HTC Desire Thread

    Arghhh, I really can't decide between getting a Desire or a Legend. I would like the extra screen of the Desire but the unibody aluminium case of the Legend is just so nice! Anyone got any convincing arguments either way!?

    Depends what you want it for really I think. If you'll do a lot of web browsing then the larger screen of the Desire is useful. If you want a smaller phone that fit's in your pocket and only browse ocasionally then the Legend fits the bill. Both are great phones

    Re: The Official HTC Desire Thread

    Remember also that the desire has the faster processor so better for gaming and although it is a bit larger, it doesn't have the angled body of the legend. I had a Hero prior to the desire and the desire sits better in your pocket in my experience.

    Re: The Official HTC Desire Thread

    I also had a Hero prior to the Desire and I like that lip. Makes it easier to hold in the hand and I found it easier in my pocket but then maybe I have odd hips or something.

    Re: The Official HTC Desire Thread

    I'd be kinda surprised. It's not even out on the Nexus One. Surely, once it's official, they need to re-write Sense UI to work on it. I guess that might be quite a small job, but considering how many apps FroYo broke, I think they changed a fair bit.

    Anyway, we'll see I guess

    What isn't out on the Nexus? 2.2? It is being pushed over time or you can get it early manually

    Nexus one doesn't have the Sense UI IIRC

    Yes. FroYo out now is not the official release. It's a leak. So... it's not finished yet.

    No, Nexus One doesn't have Sense UI, which is my point. It's not even finished on the N1, so I doubt it will be on a device that needs Sense UI re-writing for it.

    Leak != not finished yet, there are such things as trickle updates and times between gold and release due to carrier schedule for OTA updates.

    And a software update != re-writing a whole piece of software. When they release an update for Windows they don't get the other software developers to entirely re-write all their software
