Unlocked HTC Desire delayed again confirms retailer

Posted: 07 Apr 2010 02:13 AM PDT

Bad news if you’re waiting for an unlocked, SIM-free HTC Desire in the UK.  Despite the handset arriving on T-Mobile earlier this month, the unlocked version is apparently further delayed.  According to retailer Clove, deliveries to retailers of the unlocked Desire have been postponed (again) until next week.

HTC apparently expect to begin releasing stock on April 13th – just under a week from now – but there’s no guarantee when a) that stock will arrive with retailers and b) when retailers themselves will begin shipping out the Android 2.1 smartphone.  Clove point out that this isn’t a problem limited to themselves, and that it will affect all online retailers of the unlocked Desire; if a store is telling you they can get the Desire earlier, it’s time to ask some questions.

As for whether the handset is worth it, check out our full HTC Desire review over at SlashGear for all the details.

Nexus One Car Dock Pictured; Still Not Available [update: Yes it is!]

Posted: 06 Apr 2010 03:02 PM PDT

If you’re the proud owner of a Nexus One, then you’ve probably been eagerly anticipating the moment you can finally order your car dock. We’d love to tell you that moment is right now, but unfortunately, that’s not the case. But, we do have a really nice picture! And, that’s got to count for something, right? Right.

Don’t be too dismayed, we’ve also got a few pieces of information that you might like. Along with the suction cup that’s going to make your Nexus One all handy while you’re driving, and the adjustable arm that’ll put it somewhere easy to reach you’ll also get: built-in speakers, the ability to charge your Nexus One while it’s docked, and volume controls for when that lady robot gets too loud for you. (What, she doesn’t yell at you, too, when you go the wrong way?) Unfortunately, there’s no word on a release date yet, so stow your chosen payment method for now. It willcost you $55, though, so maybe you should really think it over.

[Update]: Well, that wasn’t long at all, now was it? If you’re itching to get your hands on the Car Dock, then go right ahead and order yours right now. Just go here.
