50gb drop box sounds interesting but all this cloud stuff won't really work while we are stuck with 500mb or 1gb download limits.

Beats audio is just a graphic equaliser setting ......

Sense= crap HTC bloatware. Why would you want a crap manufacturers skin on top of android. Luckily Change Mod can cure this.

Having played with both, I quite like Sense vs. vanilla Android. I only wish we had a little more latitude with respect to what we can delete... especially on my space-restricted Desire.

I quite often see feature requests from Android users that I have enjoyed on Sense from day one.

sense was a very worthy overlay in previous android versions but with ICS i think it will be unneccessary. stock gingerbread (and before) was a little bland and sense filled a gap. ICS is great. had my nexus a few months now and never felt the need for any other launcher.

Friend of mine has gone Desire to Nexus and misses a few things. One thing he misses is the group-sms function.

Yes. Sense has some great features but things like group SMS can be handled by individual apps (try go SMS).

Pretty sure I read an XDA thread about a development of a Sense 4.0 ICS rom for the Sensation. May not be long, most HTC ics dev roms are approaching end of beta stage.

Personally speaking I love Sense. Not sure why you think its crap. It has great widgets and runs buttery smooth on a single core Desire S (version 3.5 ported from the Sensation XL)

Go away!

I'm on the original Desire and I've updated to 2.3.3 and still love it.

Loads of room for all the apps I need and as so much is included you don't have to download a different app for doing the tasks like group sms.

I love the widgets for updating facebook and Twitter in one place. I love the clock, and a second clock I have showing the time in the country my other half is currently in.

It's the network, Orange that bloated my phone, so took off their rubbish when I updated the software from the HTC site.

I like it so much, my next phone will be the Sensation XE

Apparantly the more apps installed the quieter the phone. Nah, no idea either.
