Just spent the last 2 days solid playing with my new HTC desire from 3
I was previously on 02 for 10 years but their network is overloaded due to the number of iphones on their network (this is largely due to the now expired iphone-02 exclusive deal in UK).
I must have installed over 50 apps - I still don't have 'skype lite for 3' working - its doesnt support the HTC Desire yet - will wait a few weeks and give it another go.
Due to issues with battery life I have ordered one one these portapow usb battery extenders that is rechargeable - will have to write a review on it once I have tried it out.
I have also ordered a Epik HTC Desire protector case for the phone from Hong Kong as a lot of the cases are available are actually for the Google Nexus One - like the FlexiShield do not fit correctly. Over 50% of the phone cases seem to be sock-style or folder-style - which doesnt seem like a good idea. How are are supposed to be able to answer the phone quickly? Anyway will have to wait and see if its a good choice

Purchased a brand new Desire about a month ago as a company cellphone however am very dissatisfied , firstly i would have about 900 contacts on my prior XDA and was able to view by company or individual, not so on Desire only by personal which is of no use especially with no search option either. Android 2.2 is supposed to have search facility but not different view option launch date seems to differ each time . Battery pretty good approx 18 hrs medium usage. Bluetooth poor, paired with parrott car kit ok for day or so however won’t connect even by unpairing and pairing new, same issue with wireless bluetooth headset……..any ideas
