Wanted to pick up an HTC Desire, but erred due to the lack of colour variants? Fear not…. UK based retailer Expansys is currently taking orders for the limited Silver edition of the HTC Desire with copies of the swish new colour way sent out in the next two days.

The new Silver livery certainly looks smart and even if getting a top-end smartphone like the Desire SIM free might seem like an extravagance, owning a smartphone outright certainly has it’s benefits in the longrun. For one, you aren’t tied to any network and can take advantage of the many SIM only deals offered by operators.

Overall, the Desire’s spec sheet is a marvel to behold and its 3.7″ AMOLED screen with 480 x 800 resolution combined with a 1GHZ Snapdragon processor means that you can enjoy the best of the web on the move. Sure, rivals such as the Android-based Motorola Milestone XT720 and the forthcoming Nokia N8 might be able to boast better on-board cameras, but as a multi-tasking communications device, the HTC Desire is certainly the pick of the crop of new smartphones.
