HTC UK Facebook page is now saying they ARE bringing Gingerbread to the Desire. Wish they'd make their minds up!

We should ALL contact them and query whether the update is coming?
Maybe they just don't realize the "desire" for it. (sorry about that).
Come on guys/gals, let's rock the boat and start a huge campaign for it.
I'm in the mood for it today

Something to bare in mind here:
Samsung devices are getting updates quicker as they are the current Google bed-buddies - just as HTC were last year with the Desire. It's natural for Samsung devices to get first shout
Whoever makes the next Nexus model will then get updates before Samsung/HTC so quit yer whining!!

Yeah, I also think that the updates are purely manufacturer decisions. Google distributes its vanilla updates without exclusivity.

well not quite
they give a 1-2 month grace period to its flagship vanilla confectionery launch.

Does anyone know how much space there is on the system partition of a stock ROM? I can see the update taking up some space, but not that much.
Sounds like HTC is weighing their odds here. Honestly though, I think very few end users will know or care about the update, and many of those that would be aware have rooted anyways.

I guess HTC sees it your way Rasta, looks like once again they're going to listen to what their customers want. I wonder how many of those people release that their service provider will possibly elect not to go for the update.

HTCTo resolve Desire's memory issue and enable the upgrade to Gingerbread, we will cut select apps from the release.
Look for status updates starting next week. We apologize for any confusion.

... and we will support Desire forever, because we listen our customers!
Nah, just kidding...
Just bring the Sense Light to Desire (that sounded strange...).

This is one of the many reasons I am going back to the Iphone in January next year. I can't believe I left Iphone for this piece of crap
You might want to read the whole thread next time, it saves you from looking foolish, when halfway down the thread there's an update saying that that they will be bringing the update to Desire owners.

Bear in mind someone I know has an Incredible S and was looking forward to getting 2.3
Although he thinks the battery lasts a little longer, he didn't notice any other differences. He was really disappointed, it didn't even include the new version of Sense which surely the Incredible S can support.
Ho hum. By the time it arrives I bet I'll be nearly ready to upgrade (September)

Or if you change SD card?
It's one thing for someone who has rooted, partitioned their card and chosen a ROM that does that - they should know what they've done and be able to handle it. But give all Desire owners a ROM that lives partially on SD? I don't want to think of all the ways that could backfire...
