So it look like HTC is taking back their words.
This is what they say "Contrary to what we said earlier, we are going to bring Gingerbread to HTC Desire."

Released March 2010 this phone is ancient history. I'm sad to say but that's how short the lifecycle of a modern smartphone is. Does it have to be this way....NO if you ask me. That's how the market has developed into. If they(HTC, SE, SAMMY, LG etc.) kept supporting older model smartphones, it would lengthen the smartphones "lifecycle", resulting a lower sale of newer smartphones. Thus giving a loss in profit. It's all about profit maximization.
Root it. Rom it.

"Yesterday (that's 11.05.2011) at Google I/O, Google announced that it was forming an alliance with phone manufacturers and carriers to ensure more reliable updates for Android users. Revealed during the keynote yesterday, Google hasn’t provided full details just yet, but we do know which companies are on board and how long they'll be supporting hardware for.
Google revealed that the new guidelines mean future hardware will be supported for 18 months after launch. That means you can count on your phone receiving all compatible updates for a year and a half after you buy it. LG, Sony Ericsson, Motorola, AT&T, Vodafone, Sprint, Samsung, (*cough)HTC(*cough) and Verizon Wireless have all signed up so far".
Pretty nice, right ?

Users were complaining about older versions of Android lagging with certain handsets, so the manufacturers started using faster processors with more RAM which started the whole HARDWARE RACE.
Now, phones released just 12 months ago are now obsolete because Android bloatware demands the faster rescources
Now you see the benefit of a closed OS like iOS and Symbian, Devices that are getting updates for more than 2 years instead of just one. Just give me better displays and new features and I'll put up with longer loading times for software which works just as well on all formats.

Anonymous, 15 Jun 2011right so you have a froyo firmware equipped handset? , does... moreI know that I can root my phone,but it always better to get it the official way! At that time of my purchase it one of the high end phone HTC has any because the HTC Sense UI is very useful for me. By the way HTC make a promise that "HTC DESIRE WILL GET GINGERBREAD 2.3 UPDATE" that why I buy this phone!
