You may remember (but really, how can you forget?) yesterday's fiasco, when HTC's UK arm took to the same social network to announce, in one short paragraph, that it just can't make the Gingerbread update for the Desire happen. It quoted memory issues, and I went to great lengths to try and make sense of the situation back then.
Turns out I really shouldn't have, since today is a new day. And, in an even shorter announcement than yesterday's (at this rate, tomorrow HTC will say something in just one word or two – wanna guess what that could be?), the Taiwanese smartphone manufacturer basically said that it will make an update to Gingerbread available for the Desire.
“Contrary to what we said earlier, we are going to bring Gingerbread to HTC Desire.”
That's it. The entire thing. No telling us how countless engineers had a sleepless night last night trying to figure out how to get past those insidious memory issues that HTC thought were unfixable just yesterday. No praising the genius engineer who finally realized it was all possible after all… Sad.
