PhoneDog wasn't on hand to cover Mobile World Congress last month (though a colleague and "EuroDog" was able to snap a few videos for us), so we weren't able to see the HTC Desire in the flesh. During CTIA, I was able to get my hands on one during a meeting, and I must say - it's quite similar to Nexus One, but the optical trackpad, physical buttons, and HTC's Sense UI make for fantastic improvements.
No word on a US release just yet, but in the meantime, check out the photos below!
