Our HTC Legend story from last week didn’t mention one quite important detail. Yes, the rather excellent HTC Legend we’ve covered is coming to Vodafone UK, but it’s exclusive to Vodafone UK. Apart from the unlocked versions from our store and devicewire.com the only high-street shop you’ll see it in is Vodafone

Mobile World Congress saw the launch of three new HTC devices. The HTC Legend and HTC Desire are both powered by Android and we managed to get a video hands-on here and here. They’re just over a month away from your pockets now, with devicewire giving an arrival date of April 12th for the unlocked, contract free versions. The Legend will cost £389.95 including VAT with the Desire costing £399.95.

If Windows Mobile is more your thing, check out the HTC HD mini for just £329.95. We got a look at the device here and you can expect it to arrive on the 12th of April too. These prices are apparently the cheapest in the UK too!

We’ve been kicking around the t’interwebs for quite some time now and we’re well versed in the reasons for slow OS upgrade roll-outs. For Windows Mobile it’s been a battle we’ve followed for quite some time now. It usually goes like this – an update becomes available it’s rolled out to the unlocked “direct from the manufacturer” handsets, but those with network-branded or network-provided handsets must wait. Why ? Well, there’s a long list of reasons, but it’s mostly because the networks need to check that everything works and the added network bits are still there. If something is different it could prove a customer service headache.

But… The iPhone kinda changed all this. Customers expect prompt updates, and it smarts when some phones get an update but other handsets, identical albeit for a network logo, get stuck in the past. Vodafone customers are feeling this particularly hard at the minute, with HD2 owners voicing their concern in the Vodafone forums. Complaints are stacking up, and customers are certainly not happy – they seem to be on ROM version 1.43 and 1.66 appeared just recently. One comment reads..

“This is just getting ridiculous now. What on earth have Vodafone got to test??? HTC are the ones providing the phones to them, HTC are the ones providing the ROM updates.”

The Nexus One Review is now online over at engadget and, while there’ll no doubt be a collective groan from our readers as we mention this again, it marks a significant turning point for Google. A telling part of this review states that…

“Google is plunging head-first into the dangerous game Microsoft has adamantly sought to avoid all these years on WinMo: competing head-to-head with its valued (well, supposedly valued) partners.”

This is a big risk for Google and we’ll find out more later during the big press event, but it’s perhaps something that needed to be done. Already the “Open Handset Alliance” has allowed the Android OS to spread like wildfire on a variety of handsets but already Google have hit the “wall” – updating so many handsets running so many flavours of the OS is proving to be a time-consuming battle with networks all wanting their say.

Many of you will have no doubt experienced updates appearing for the unlocked handsets first, with “network variants” appearing much later or not at all. Google hopes to make their own handset that they can manage and control directly here – but this early review seems to suggest that the device isn’t the show-stopper we’d hoped..

“…the Nexus One is at its core just another Android smartphone. It’s a particularly good one, don’t get us wrong — certainly up there with the best of its breed — but it’s not in any way the Earth-shattering, paradigm-skewing device the media and community cheerleaders have built it up to be.”
