I have an htc wildfire, and I love it. Whilst it does feel a little under-specc'd for the OS, the sheer greatness of android shines through to overcome the slightly slow nature of the phone. You get used to it too, just pause to let it load for a second before you stab at it with your fingers and say "it doesnt work". Of course it doesnt, you just told it to scroll, zoom and go back before it even loaded the page!
Sorry I am ranting.
