I'd say if you want to buy it from Meteor(or any other Irish network) you would be talking around March next year.

I'm gonna hold off till 3.0 is released.

Rumour on why the HTC Desire current incarnation is permanently out of stock is because this model is going to replace it outright before any restock is considered - Seems like they'd be anxious to avoid delay in that case given that the Desire is so popular - What ye think?

No.

Its out of stock because Samsung produce the Amold screens and have withheld stock in order to satisfy their own product lineup. HTC are now sourcing screens from Sony, but there are time constraints with ramping up production to meet levels of demand.

Meteor, being a small operator don't have huge clout/buying power so can't get as much access to the limited stock available.
