ooo, if it is april will it have win 7 on it tho?
Diesel Barge
was it the hero?
No it is a Android handset, WP7 handsets will not appear until late this year.
It must have been, looks cracking is it any good? Or old hat now?

My boss has one and its VERY nice but looking at this new legend, which looks to be the replacement of the hero, i'm in love

What berry do you have? I got the bold bout a year ago and thought it was the bees knees, but all the other phone manufactures seem to have caught up with all the nice stuff blackberrys do, i.e. the im, chat and emails.
I have the bold, it's stil kept up with the little bits and bobs that I like, I don't use a phone for im and chat only emails and my bookmarks are simple to access staright onto web pages. I still love it.
Went away for a week to fix the screen and I realised how good it was when I go it back. You'll only like blackberry's if you like them, they are very marmite imo.
Oh and the qwerty keyboard could be very hard to give up.

Hmmm, thats the only thing thats concerning me with the move from berry to htc, the touchscreen, not sure if i'd get used to it, the qwerty is noice.
Engadget have a UI walkthrough available in their video section for the Legend.

One thing that changed the way I use my phone was when Google started doing full sync last year. Push Mail, contacts & calendar. It's brilliant and free.

How do google offer push email?
Clio 1.2 Grande (2001)
They offer a Microsoft exchange server that pushes mail out to your phones Activesync 24/7. If you have a data account with your phone provider, you can have all your emails, calendar and contacts sync'd up all the time. i.e. you make a change to your calendar or contacts and it updates your gmail account. Brilliant if there's a chance you'll lose all your settings if you lose the phone or trash it while updating.

Schweet, will have to take a look, cheers.
edit: Wondered why i'd never seen the push option, i have a blackberry, so there is no push, but it's already included as part of the BIS service berrys offer. Would have been nice on my N95 tho...
The Desire is simply a repackaged Droid Eris that we have here in the States. I have the Eris and it is a very nice phone to look at, it feels great and its functions are cool too. However, be warned... Battery life is hideous, the screen persistently unlocks itself in your pocket and dials people. It will work with hotmail push services for about 3 days then stop, the only way to make it work is to constantly delete and then reinstall the account. A charge will last less than a day so you need to have a spare charger or car charger with you at all times. The speaker phone is crap but it has wi-fi and lots of other functions which make it a cool phone.
Definitely the best phone i have had in comparison to the iPhone but im hoping some of the bugs will be sorted when it moves up to the latest android platform in the coming months, much like the first generation iPhones.

Unfortunately, however good the HD2 is (and believe me this phone totally rocks) the HD Mini is a bit under powered. If they're just given it a bit of a better spec it might have been a real catch.
I bet it'll still make quite a good phone though all the same.
