Kindly assist me. I have ordered the desire from Amazon in Germany, but I don't want it to be in German language. Can I change the setting to English. Thank you

What a phone! I got the HTC Desire two weeks ago and I just love it. The only con maybe the cam... pics could be a bit sharper and the colors more vibrant. As for the rest this phone is just awesome:
-Brilliant display and everything is fluid
-Pleasing design and good built quality
-Android (2.1) is intuitive but powerful and HTC Sense UI is a plus
-Audio output is great and easily replaces a dedicated device
-Internet browsing is super fast, but google wants you to do just that ;-)
-GPS is more than fine: it gets a satellite lock almost instantly and keeps it very well. Tested the trial version of Navigon and worked perfectly despite the several tunnels and the ugly rainy weather in Luxembourg...
As far as the memory is concerned, only the executable part of the apps install themselves on the ROM while the bigger (like navigation maps etc.) go to the SD card. So the memory 'limit' is not such an issue as I previously believed and should even be addressed 'very soon' like stated on some websites.
No phone is perfect but, right now and in my eyes, this one comes closest to it so: viva HTC and благодаря to GSMarena for providing us with the best reviews on the net :-)

One week since I got my Desire and I'm bowled over.. Great Phone, Congrats HTC and Google for coming up with this gem. Android 2.1 + Snapdragon 1Ghz + 572 MB RAM + Sense UI is a WINNING combo.. no doubt!! I'm fine with the battery life since I don't mind charging every night. The speaker-sound is tinny, but the headphone sound is perfect. Final verdict: Exceeded all my expectations!!

What about the screen? I've read it has problems with multi touch.
Is that true for the Desire? I know the N1 is horrible with that.
Thanks!
