I've never handled a Desire - a visiting friend had an Evo, and it seemed like a delightful alternative to an iPhone. How does the Desire stack up in that category?
I have a Touch Diamond currently, but I've found (unlike many members of this site) that I don't need the awesome customizability that such a device allows. I'm not looking to cook my own ROM or whatever... and I have been envying the smooth functionality of a friend's iPhone. Seems a lot more "fun" than my phone, even if my phone can do more hardcore stuff.
I don't want to get an iPhone though, because Steve Jobs sucks.
Advice from the experts would be appreciated, but remember, my priorities are probably different from many on this site.
