It’s really confusing me now. First we heard that the HTC Desire will hit AT&T in May/June period, and now, according to Androincia, a manager at a T-Mobile USA store was being trained on several phones that are coming to the carrier this year, and the HTC Desire is on the list. They also said that they contact other T-Mobile employees and they said that their manager’s are off for training.
Does this mean the HTC Desire will hit T-Mobile soon?
It’s a rumor but i can see the truth in it. The Desire is almost similar to the Nexus One but the Desire comes with an optical track-pad, unlike the Nexus One. We already heard that Verizon is training their employees for the Nexus One. I think this must be training month.
If T-Mobile launches the Desire, T-Mobile will be the carrier with the most powerful Android handsets in America.
We know that HTC Desire is hitting T-Mobile UK and Orange UK, according to this rumor, T-Mobile UK will launch the Desire on March 26. No words on Orange date.
So you guys who were disappointed last time. I think this is good news for you !

All I have to say is, about time!

I sure hope it’s true! I have been desiring the Desire since it was first rumored!

NO NO NO— there is NO truth to this. I am a T-Mo Store Manager at one of the largest locations in a large city and we have NOT been trained on the Desire, nor has there been a single word hinting that we will be. NO NO NO. Only HTC device on our radar right now, that we HAVE been trained on, is HD2. Also, we wouldn’t have the manager’s “off” to train on any device. As an avid Android fan, I wish the Desire rumors were true but they’re simply not. Sorry!
You know I was REALLY hoping this was true. Looks like my hopes have been shattered in 2 seconds while reading your reply, Mr. Store Manager.
…that was a stupid comment dude. just because you being mr. special haven’t been trained doesn’t mean it won’t hit. there’s a few other t-mobile stores.

I sure hope this is true, but its not looking good. I would love to have the Desire!

LOL and it gets shot down just as fast as i read the post. Either way keep posting rumors. At least it gives us hope. I like many other would love to see the desire on tmobile. Heres to hoping it happens and your sources are good!!
I have been using my G1 since i preordered it. I’m due for an upgrade. If it does happen it would be a drag to wait till june or july for this phone but believe you me I would gladly do so.
keep up the good work androidspin

The story is true
hahah
LMAO,
Now that’s a funny reply Mr CEO
.
Food for thought Mr. CEO, the board of directors would string you up if you openly released information about a pending product release especially considering the lawsuit between Apple and HTC. Now do you work at Wendys or Mcdonalds…?

This is so exciting, finally a Nexus-like phone that will be sold through T-Mobile so customers with group or family plans can enjoy the second generation Android phones.

Why would you want a ‘Nexus-like phone’ on t-mobile when you can just get the real deal on t-mobile? Just get a different phone if you don’t want it. Get it if you want it..
Tan… you can’t technically just get the Nexus One on T-Mobile, Google sells the phone. Only a select few T-Mobile customers can get the phone with a discount, the rest of us… those on Family Plans, corporate plans, loyalty plans have been left out in the cold by Google, and have to pay $529 for the Nexus One. By getting a phone like this sold directly in T-Mobile stores, it would allow ALL T-Mobile customers to upgrade.
You have a point buddy

How could a phone that has not passed the fcc for the u.s have training being done for a release? There is no such evidence of a desire with u.s. bands even exists, so maybe in 4 months this could be true.

As an existing T-Mobile family plan customer, I have to say that I hope that there is at least a shred of truth to this rumor. God what a sexy device. Even if managers are not currently being briefed on the Desire, that doesn’t mean that it won’t eventually come out on T-Mo US. Having the FCC validation would be a plus, though. Guess we have to wait and see. Apple’s lawsuit will surely fuck this up for us if HTC’s phones are banned from sale in the US. I really love my MT3G, and the whole HTC experience has been very positive for me. This is coming from a former iPhone user.

I want this story to be true. I was so close to ordering the Nexus but decided to hold off since you can’t demo one before you buy it. (stupid decision to make it an online purchase only, lost my sale!) I would love to have the Desire since it has hardware buttons for send,menu,return, and end. Come on T-mobile and get in the game so I can play with this phone in the store and know what I’m buying.
[EDIT] Meant home and search…whoops.

“If T-Mobile launches the Desire, T-Mobile will be the carrier with the most powerful Android handsets in America”. This statement is wrong!!! Sprint HTC EVO 4G tops out Desire.
How do you figure? Just because it says 4G?
It’s a 3G/4G phone & the whole “4G” thing is mostly marketing hype. The speeds on Sprint’s site are:
* 4G data speeds (WiMAX) – peak download speeds of more than 10 Mbps; peak upload speeds of 1 Mbps; average download speeds of 3-6 Mbps.
* 3G data speeds (EVDO Rev A.) – peak download speeds of up to 3.1 Mbps; peak upload speeds of 1.8 Mbps; average download speeds of 600 kbps-1.4 Mbps.
3G/LTE is capable of 84 Mbit theoretically and T-Mo has cranked their 3G up to 14.4Mbit in some markets already with plans to go faster.
Don’t “learn” about the technology from TV ads or all the marketing that AT&T, Sprint, T-Mo or Verizon toss out. Instead, take a few minutes to look into the REAL specs from IEEE, Wikipedia or something you can trust that isn’t from a carrier who wants to sell you their product.
