I don’t know and not been able to find any information on them. No doubt someone on the XDA forums will come up with what they are.

quick question, orange htc desire any probs with installing radios etc???
Also I have only had my desire a few days can any of you tech heads tell me if its possible to download the maps from "google map" app. I live in cornwall and Im on T-mobile so the signal while out and about in some of the many dips / valleys is painfully slow to download maps.

HTC has just released a firmware update with version number 2.10.405.2 for some European HTC Desires, and it is obtainable OTA (over-the-air). Those eligible for the upgrade should be notified automatically before long, and if you can’t wait for your Android to work its magic you can always head to Settings > About phone > System software updates and press the ‘Check now’ button.
We have yet to actually confirm in which exact regions this firmware update is available, but all points to that unlocked HTC Desires in Europe should be able to download it, and that branded devices soon will get it too.
The firmware upgrade is 25 MB and includes:
Android OS update patch
Enhanced multi inbox Gmail support
Improved RUS keyboard layout

I believe Brut mod for maps caches map tiles to the SD card - so I guess you could look at your route in a high signal area/over wifi beforehand, and it will read from the cache if the tiles are present.

What's the word on the best task managing app folks? Something is destroying my battery and it is very frustrating.

*Be Warned* there is a bug in the new OTA update today, it generates errors in wifi and wont let you connect. HTC are aware and making a patch.
Very quick question for all you knowledgeable types.
If I bought a Desire today, would I get/be more likely to get an AMOLED or SLCD screen? And is there any massive difference between the two?
From what I hear/read, AMOLED is more vivid and saturated but sucks batteries dry where SLCD is (apparently) sharper and less garish and doesn't put so much strain on the battery.
Any thoughts?

As I understand it the current crop are all SLCD, even though places like mobiles.co.uk are still advertising it as being AMOLED. The colours on AMOLED are better and I would take one over SLCD wherever possible.

Is there a way of getting the HTC Sense widgets working on Launcher Pro, I want the Laucher Pro dock with Sense widgets.

Guess this is why it tells me there is no update, have they pulled it completely you think?
