    HTC Desire review

Rating: 5

A powerful device whose large screen is particularly well suited to media rich activities. HTC’s Sense user interface adds extra pizzazz to Android, and the operating system is fast becoming very business-relevant while still retaining a lot of consumer-focused positives. Battery life is a potential problem, though, and it could be an issue with Android for some time to come.

Keypad

Does this have the option of a typical phone keypad while texting in portrait mode, rather than the narrow Qwerty keypad?
Thanks

Business use

Is the Android OS capable of replacing a Windows OS mobile for business use? - I've been using the HTC Touch/Touch HD for a few years and I can't fault its ability to sync easily & correctly with MSOffice. I've tried Blackberrys & the iPhone, both of which do sync to a point, but if Android cannot do this then it will never be a business contender.

@rmjowen Yes, you can have a phone-style keypad with XT9 or multitap.

micro sd card

The important abstract to remember is that this module exclusive be desirable until Android 2.5, 3.0 or whatever comes out. The Nexus module obtain the update directly while Desire owners module be mitt in the cold, same as Hero users today. That's why I likely won't be purchase a Sense device, beautiful

I guess this sinks with an enterprise system such as opensolaris nicely through evolution?
