Heya, I was just about to order the HTC Desire Brown when I saw that there's a new color out now; not Silver but White!
What is the coolest one in your opinion; the White one or the Brown? (Or the Silver one? :p neh)

Edit: I forgot the Black one (But I'm getting Vodafone so I can't get the Black one anyway :p)

honestly speaking i would say to go for another phone (the hd?). my desire is awesome and it's a perfect platform to experience htc's sense interface and android but it's one major flaw is something that you can't really fix; that being the low internal memory for apps etc.

unless htc have wised up and released these newer desires with more memory?

you get roughly about 150mb (i think) for apps but even with apps to sd you're constantly chopping and changing things if you like to install lots of apps and games. it depends on your preference of course but considering it could be a long term (at least 12 months?) investment and the fact the marketplace is growing so rapidly, even if you weren't a trigger happy downloader you may find the memory issue quite an inconvenience.

i've learnt to live with it but seriously, more internal memory would make the desire sooo much better for me.

The white one will have less heat dissipation problems while charging.....
U know black bodies attract and trap lot of heat ;-)
Jus kidding.....
Black is always kickass....

Black radiates heat better and white reflects it (Taking the very basic explanation). So actually the white will have more issues, as the white inside cover will reflect the heat back into the phone, and any heat absorbed by the cover will be less readily radiated. But in reality the difference will be negligible.

Thanks for all the response, I'm gonna get the brown one :)

What do you mean with that? Is it hard to put apps on your SD card?

Just get a brown one and then get a cover from fleabay in the colour of your preference ;)

It's probably a dumb question but Do you mean Ebay or really a website called fleabay? :p (Can you send me a link to the fleabay website if you mean fleabay?)
