HTC has recently posted another EVO 4G video that is sure to make you drool, well it had that effect on me anyway. That said, the video is longer than a standard television commercial, but still leaves you wanted more with just 1 minute and 31 seconds worth of footage. Sit back, enjoy and be

Reviews: HTC Desire & Entourage eDGe

A couple pretty interesting reviews popped up today on Engadget and CrunchGear, covering the HTC Desire and Entourage eDGe, respectively. We thought you’d like to hear the scoop so we’ve provided a summarizing snippet of each with links to the full reviews. HTC Desire Review The Desire is yet another fine piece of work from HTC – build quality is top notch as usual, and there’s little to complain about the software except for the Flash performance. Some may argue that the Desire lacks freshness since the Nexus One ’s already shown it all, but we’d disagree – at the end of the day it’s mainly about the software and service, plus the Desire is available from more carriers to begin with (outside the US, anyway). [ Read the full review ] Entourage eDGe Dualbook Review The enTourage eDGe is a functional, easy-to-use device that currently defies formal classification. It’s primarily going to be useful to academics and people who spend a lot of time in books, but need more convenience than that offered by separate e-book reader and laptop. It has some warts, but offers surprising value in a first-generation device. [ Read the full review ]

Desire and Legend Rooted Already

Well, looks like it has happened again. Modaco, the same guy that rooted the Nexus One before it was released, just achieved root on the Desire and Legend before they have been released. HTC must’ve gotten wind of this because they are now working on an update to the Desire’s firmware which will most likely patch this exploit before it is released. Modaco is likely working on custom ROM’s for both devices and porting them to other devices. It shouldn’t be long before we have a perfect Sense UI ROM for our Nexus One’s. I’m sure the OTA was already in the making but the reason above seems cooler. [via twitter ]

Here’s an item that HTC probably wishes was just an April Fool’s joke. The ITC has agreed to investigate Apple’s patent complaints against HTC. Apple accused HTC of stealing its intellectual property in its phones, particularly the Android version of its Sense UI. While plenty of analysts, journalists, and consumers say this is all about

First Look: HTC EVO 4G for Sprint [VIDEO]

We’ve seen a few “promotional” videos for the HTC EVO 4G , but up until now, they’ve all been rather mediocre and sloppily put together. But now, HTC has released a more whole-hearted effort and illustrating the beauty and capabilities of the EVO. For  your viewing pleasure, a clip that does the device a little more justice: The spot is 1.5 minutes long, so it isn’t likely to be used as an actual commercial, but we’re expecting Sprint and HTC to promote the HECK out of this thing so I’m eager to see what their television-ready ad will look like.

3 UK HTC Desire arrives April 20th

UK carrier 3 have announced that they’ll be the next network to offer the HTC Desire , with the Android 2.1 smartphone arriving on Tuesday April 20th.  Priced from free on a £35 monthly agreement or £349.99 on pay-as-you-go, the Desire will be initially sold as a generic device with the 3-branded version rocking up on May 3rd. However, apparently 3 users of either the generic or branded Desires will be able to download 3’s apps from the Android Market and use them as normal, so unless you particularly want the carrier’s logo on your phone there’s no reason to wait.  Upgrades for existing customers are also available, of course, though you’ll have to ring customers services to find out exactly how much it might set you back. If you’re still undecided on the HTC Desire, head over to our full review of the handset at SlashGear .  Vodafone’s version hits the UK on April 8th and is already available for preorder, while T-Mobile are apparently already shipping their version.

HTC Indredible Arrives In Warehouses

Good news and bad news at the same time folks. The HTC Incredible, which saw no love as it was expected to during CTIA, has already begun arriving in warehouses. According to the following screenshot leaked on AndroidForums , 156,709 Incredibles are “On Order” but as the tipster states, they’ll stay in that classification category until they’re actually ready for purchase. The bad news? Those precious little Incredibles are sitting there all prettied up with 2.1, ready to go, and they’re not shipping to stores this week. That means we’ve at least a little bit to wait…
