New Phone: HTC Desire

Recently my Mom got a new phone, an HTC Desire. I was quite impressed with it and liked it. 

A couple days ago, a friend of mine asked me to help him out with rooting and flashing his own HTC Desire to get Android 2.3. I helped him out, and after I did it I was seriously impressed with 2.3 on this phone. Very fast, snappy, and a joy to use and so I told him that I liked it a lot. One of that guy’s relatives was selling one that he got. He told me that his realtive opened it up, checked it out for a couple hours and didn’t like it; they were too used to their Blackberry. So I told him I would buy it from him for 100kd.

A brand new HTC Desire cost 145kd, so I thought it was a resonable offer, and so did my friend’s realtive. He sold it to me for 100kd. 

I quickly put Android 2.3 on my new phone (Oxygen ROM) and wow I’m really impressed. The screen size is bigger than my previous Samsung Galaxy Spica, and this phone is much faster and feels so good. Call quality is excellent. 

I am really happy with the phone and really happy about the price I got it for.
