O2 looks like they have just released the HTC Desire in the UK and that means that every carrier in the UK now has this phone - lucky them. There's not much to tell you here that you shouldn't already know about the phone, it's everywhere now. This handset was delayed a bit because of the training that the Desire initially failed. Anyways, you can check it out on O2's site because it's all good now.

Don't forget that O2 has also released the HTC Smart, so maybe you'll want to opt for that instead of the Desire.

The HTC Smart looks like it will be launched exclusively on a carrier over in Europe. We're talking about O2. The Qualcomm Brew-powered phone will be available for free on contract and will be available starting this April. This handset features a 2.8-inch QVGA touchscreen display, a 3MP camera with a flash, a 300MHz CPU, a microSD card slot, a 3.5mm headpone jack, and Bluetooth 2.0 support.

We first heard about this phone back in December and now it's been official. The HTC Touch.B / Rome will be launched as the HTC Smart. It'll be running on Qualcomm's Brew Mobile Platform  - also in the INQ Mini 3G - and will be overlayed with HTC's Sense UI. This handset will reportedly feature: a 2.8-inch QVGA touchscreen display, a 3MP camera with a flash, a 300MHz CPU, a microSD card slot, 256MB of ROM and RAM, a 3.5mm headphone jack, GSM / HSDPA connectivity, Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity, and an 1,100 mAh battery. This looks like it will be HTC's first dumbphone - especially since it's missing WiFi and GPS.
