Now my son wants a new phone.. so 2 new phones. Wildfire vs 540

Any other comments ?

I know they will be comparing it to my HTC Desire... which is a bit unfair !!

Thanks

My sister has the htc And I got the lg. The lg has a higher resolution screen but the htc's screen is sensibler. The htc has stock 2.1 And there are already good working froyo roms for it.

I would chose the htc.

The LG will get a 2.2 Rom someday in the not too distant future, i just feel it! the LG screen res is better. Plus its a snappy little phone, as long as you know what to do with it and don't clutter it with useless apps. I would go for the LG every time!

Looks like a pretty even split for both phones.

Think I'll take the kids to the local Carphone warehouse and see which they prefer !!

Thanks
