Canadian Android site AndroidTablets.ca is reporting an August 3rd launch date for the HTC Desire at Telus. The employee who confirmed the date in-store wasn’t able to give an exact price but quoted it as probably coming in under $100 for a 3-year deal. This goes against earlier leaked figures putting it at $299.95 on a three-year contract, quite pricey for a handset in today’s world of subsidized phones. Whether or not the August 3rd date will stick remains to be seen, but dummy units arriving in Telus stores indicate the phone will be launching soon regardless.

I am totally hoping it ships with Froyo, considering the news about all HTC devices in China coming with it!

I was in the store @ start of day today: no record of any shipments scheduled for android phones. The reps were personally awaiting the product, but it appears speculation was incorrect. They were hopeful about it being this week however.
