It looks as though Vodafone are taking a bit of a hint from Telstra here by letting users know when their devices may or may not be updated in the near future.

If you're an owner of a HTC Desire Z from Vodafone, you can now update your device from Android 2.2 to 2.3 via an over the air (FOTA) update. Your device will periodically search for the update and then ask if you'd like to download (do it over Wi-Fi!) and install the 104MB update. If you're not a fan of Continue reading...

Update: Vodafone couldn't shed any light on HTC discontinuing the device, but they said they'll continue to sell it.

Now let's not get ahead of ourselves, as Voda Continue reading...

A week or so ago Vodafone told us that the Desire Z would be coming soon. Well, it seems Christmas has come early (so to speak), and the Desire Z has now been released on Vodafone. The Desire Z will be available on a range of Vodafone Infinite and Ultimate plans with varying handset installments, though good picks seem Continue reading...

Today was another feather in the cap of Vodafone, on way to rebuilding their brand, after what has been a horror run for the telco.

There have been a few rumours floating around adding to the uncertainty that HTC would update their Desire line of phones to Android 2.3, now Android Community have stated a HTC Executive has said the update (Gingerbread) is indeed coming to the HTC Desire, HTC Desire HD, HTC Desire Z & HTC Incredible Continue reading...

Tuesday morning I received a courier parcel from Mobicity - the new HTC Desire Z had arrived, ready to be reviewed. The Desire Z comes in the usual packaging for HTC's mobile fare, and it lists an impressive set of features: 800 MHz Snapdragon processor - don't let the clock speed fool you, this phone is fast! 720p HD video recording 1.5GB on Continue reading...

If you're one of the lucky ones that purchased their Desire Z from MobiCity, and one of the many that have received their Desire HD from Vodafone and the like, you'll be happy to know (if it interests you) that your device can now be permanently rooted.
