I think its a simple choice between customization and price for the desire and better quality and wider selection of apps for the iPhone. If they were both the same price, I would choose an iPhone
i would buy a htc desire because i can make my phone look exactly how i want it, i can organise my apps into folders of my choosing, i can easily see my notifications, i love widgets, i like my apps to update in the bacground, so when i go into them they are up to date, i love my homescreens.
What i'm trying to say is, i would buy a htc desire because there simply is no alternative.
Improved battery or maybe bigger screen. But it would still have to be AMOLED.
HOWEVER, with that in mind, I can just about use my Desire with one hand, and the screen is BIG enough. Any bigger you would have to always use 2 hands to do anything on the phone which would probably get annoying sometimes..
I would get a nexus 1, obvious better support from Google. Personally think it looks nicer the trackball is better than the desires optical thingy, dual microphones. HTC sense is now bettered by launcher pro.
No the n1 has dual microphones, a better trackball and me course already has 2.2. The only thing the desire has over the n1 is sense, but after using installing launcher pro on my desire I won't be going back to sense!
The Desire also has physical buttons for home, menu, back and search where-as the N1's are touch.
This is what made me get the Desire as I still have a horrible memory of touch screen buttons like that on a very old samsung that drove me completely mad.
The biggest hardware difference is the front-facing camera, surely? Everything else is to do with your choice of software. If you want to make video calls only to other iPhone 4's and only on WiFi then the iPhone is an advantage. If you don't care about video calling (and who does, to be honest) then get an Android. But we are biased.

News of the next iphone hasnt swayed by decision, ive not owned an iphone let alone an apple product, i do like the deisre because you arent restricted in what you can do with the desire.
