What's it like?

I am quite tempted! Will be a bit of an upgrade from my Sony Ericsson p910i

    Have you seen the Desire?
    There's love in this world for everyone. Every rascal and son of a gun.
    It's for the many and not the few. Be sure it's out there looking for you.
    In every town, in every state. In every house and every gate.
    Wth every precious smile you make. And every act of kindness.

    Not physically, but from photos it looks big and plastic in comparison.

    From what I've been reading, there aren't any android apps that need the 1GHz processor, and the Legend is quick enough.

    I saw both but went for the desire cause It had a bigger screen and it apparently ls meant to be better than the nexus Google phone so that's why I went for it and I may say I don't regret it and as for the legend it just looks like a remade HTC hero my opinion . And Vodafone are offering the legend for 20 pounds a month and they can even lower it to 15pounds if you have another contract with them.

    I have one on order- not the cleverest time to release a mobile phone on the Bank Holiday weekend;).

    I was planning on getting a Legend for my next phone but haven't had a brief play with a Desire and done some more research I'll be getting the Desire. The Legend does look lovely though.
    It's my problem, it's my problem
    If I feel the need to hide
    And it's my problem if I have no friends
    And feel I want to die

    What deals have people got on the Legend- am deciding between this and the desire- funnily enough! The sleeker design does influence me!!
    Green and minimal chemicals is the new black- I know a fair old bit about sustainability, specially energy and transport stuff. If I can help- please ask!

    Have a read through this comparison,seems there's hardly anything between the two on size,but the desire seems to come out on top for performence:

    Depends on what software you're running and if you leave the wifi, BT and gps running all the time (just like most smartphones).

    I think you're looking at charging every night.
