    like you said there are ways around it but its much easier if you buy the phone unlocked
    i bought mine for 580 shipped to my door from america unlocked
    you shouldnt have to wait for telstra to release software thats already available on the internet
    i just have to work out how to download and install it, il get back to you on that
    Try: press menu, select settings, select About phone, select system software updates.

    Don't get me wrong, I can't fault Telstra 3G network or phone. The problem arises only when you use different phone company. Originally wife was on prepaid and after we recharged with $60 credit that should last up to 9 months, credit was gone within a month. After questioning it Telstra told us we repliedto wrong offer. You see they send you an offer and aren't clever enough to see that you have selected different things on your prepaid. So I got fed up with them and used Vodafone SIM, that is on $49 months plan and hardly get used.(I had a problem with Telstra broadband 2x in past 2 months, so I didn't want to take another plan from them)

    To be fair, the phone is faster on Telstra network, but Vodafone has coverage where Telstra has no signal.

    Can't recommend Thick buttons enough.

    Also Lock enabler, unless you guys know a better screen locker! PITA!

    Friend Stream is nice, all the networking feeds in one place

    Spareparts is great for tweaking things.

    Barcode scanner and Shop savvy is cool for barcode scanning and price checking.

    Liquid face light is a bit of fun.

    And I'd have to admit I'm a Robodefence player despite being over 40! Mad missile defence is fun too.

    Love the Desire, way cool.
