Tech deals: HTC Desire HD now available from Three

We've already had our hands on the HTC Desire HD, and it looks to be a real cracker.

Just as well then that the HTC Desire HD is now available on Three, and as contracts go it looks as though it's a pretty fair deal.

The HTC Desire HD is available for £40 a month on The One Plan with 2000 any network minutes, 5000 Three-to-Three minutes, 5000 texts and 1GB data. On Pay As You Go the HTC Desire HD is £449.99 and includes a £10 Top Up.

The phone itself gets a whopping 4.3-inch screen, an 8-megapixel camera and as the name suggests HD video capture of 720p.

Under the bonnet there's a 1GHz processor running the Android 2.2 (Froyo) OS all wrapped up in the new HTC Sense. DLNA and HSDPA are also present, making for decent connectivity options.
