Mobile network 3 are set to update the HTC Desire to Android 2.3 AKA Gingerbread.
But when? Nobody knows.
When asked if they will be releasing Android 2.3 for the original HTC Desire, Three UK replied, “Yes we will but we don’t have timescales yet.”
All the latest HTC releases which were shown off at Mobile World Congress such as the HTC Desire S, will be shipping with Gingerbread at launch leaving poor old Desire old news until the update comes.
But the update should be well worth the date with Gingerbread set to bring the HTC Desire improved copy and paste, VoIP functionality and updated battery management.
Non-3 users do not lament, there are whispers that non-Three HTC Desires will also be getting the 2.3 update very soon.
We'll keep you posted.
