If you trust Telstra and their announcement that Froyo would hit the HTC Desire within four weeks, you’ll be happy to know that the “four weeks” ends this Friday the 15th. Even if it doesn’t hit this between now and this Friday, we can only hope that it won’t be too far off, or Telstra [...]

With HTCSense.com having just launched and the HTC Desire HD making its way out sometime soon, I thought I’d give you all a quick walkthrough of what you can do inside of HTCSense.com. It’s feature packed, and well thought out, so if you’re getting the Desire HD, or Desire Z, you have a lot to [...]

It’s been almost a month since HTC announced the Desire HD, Desire Z and of course HTCSense.com, and finally HTCSense.com is up and available in preparation of the upcoming HTC Desire Z and HTC Desire HD launches. The site itself is extra colourful and appears to be well thought out and designed. Of course you [...]

HTC Aria fans, your time has come. The device has recently hit Optus’s online store, and will no doubt reach retailers in the next week or so. Plans start at $19/mo (+$11/mo) working up to $29/mo (+$7/mo) then to the overpriced $49/mo with no mobile repayments. The $49 includes 1GB data, $450 cap credit, 2 [...]

Ten days ago, I reviewed the HTC Wildfire for Android Australia. I’ve kept the phone for the intervening period to really push some of the features that had bothered me in the initial review to flesh out my opinion on whether the phone was a worthwhile purchase. In particular, these are the issues that had [...]

After having a quick browse on the Telstra site, it appears their flagship Desire has sold out. Surely it can’t be from lacking AMOLED stock as they have since replaced most of their stock with Super LCD. It’s also a tad strange that they’ve run out of stock considering it’s the last month of their [...]

It’s finally October, which means there is a fair bit of stuff expected to happen, unless of course you’re waiting for your Android 2.1 or 2.2 update, because that’ll no doubt be pushed back, again! In all seriousness though, there are a couple of fairly big launches coming up, and with a bit of luck [...]

So it turns out Techanist was right last month when they said the HTC Aria would be headed to Optus. This morning’s HTC announcement, attended by Neerav Bhatt, provided the crucial pricing information: $49/mo (includes 1GB of data). That puts it on an equal par with the HTC Wildfire on Telstra, as well as it [...]

HTC Australia have announced today, via Facebook, that the HTC Aria will be launched/officially announced/something tomorrow but have given no ideas as to which Carrier it will come to. We’ve reported in the past that it would be Optus, but strange things can happen. The Aria would sit well at VHA or Optus as a [...]

The last twelve months has seen a real explosion of Android devices hitting the Australian market, and this has been especially true for Telstra – not five months ago they bought (in my opinion) the second best ever Android phone to market, and in the time since, they’ve also released the Xperia X10 (and X10 [...]

Telstra said at day 1 that they weren’t going to launch an Android device until they thought the platform was mature & stable enough. They kept that stance until the HTC Desire was announced, a device they welcomed with open arms and really pushed, and it was that push that I believe really started the [...]

With the Desire HD making its way over to VHA in the next month or so, I thought I’d get some excitement going by posting up some of the screenshots from the Desire HD that have made their way online. The ones above show the new themes that come with Sense, there are 5 pre-installed [...]

Following HTC’s global announcement in London, VHA announces today that the HTC Desire HD will launch exclusively through Vodafone and 3. Pricing and availability will be announced closer to the launch [...]
