My Pocket PC (PPC) Adventures: HTC Desire

Year 2010: HTC Desire

Motivated by the prospect of Android programming, I switched to the HTC Desire [specs]. Compared to the XDA Diamond, it is fast, has a bigger screen, and nice hardware buttons. It feels slightly large but still fits comfortably in the pocket -- like the iPhone, I guess it is the largest pocketable size. Everything else rocks.

HTC Desire	Evaluation
	Pro: Still pocketable Nice hardware buttons GPS, Compass, Accelerometer WLAN, Bluetooth 5 MP Camera Contra: Could be a bit smaller Bugs: So far none

So far, this has been my favourite phone: Almost the right size, nice actual buttons (not the soft buttons found everywhere), all the GPS and assorted hardware in the world, Android 2.2 (API 8) programming. The HTC Sense UI is somewhat superfluous, but does not get too much into the way.
