This phone is brilliant.
I bought this phone after my ancient Samsung sgh500 broke down on me the other day. I'd always wanted a HTC, so when I saw this for 140 pounds, I bought it on a whim. I usually live to regret impulse buys, but not with the wildfire. It's quick, you never need to wait more than a few seconds for sonething to load, it never freezes, its easy to use, has an eye catching display, but best of all it is so practical. I use it for college, when im bored, when I need to find things out etc. This is basically HTC's spin on the iPhone.
The camera is so so, but they always are phones - it does for art.
The only drawbacks are the resolution, which I didn't even notice until a review said about it, but it is a tiny bit pixelated, but you really wont notice. Also, the apps are not as good as appke ones. And speaking of Apple, if you have a touch or iPhone, you will find the keyboard hard to use for a but, but i really am picking up the tiny details here. this is an excellent phone, compact, but full of useful stuff. It's everything a higher procedures Android phone is, but without the flawless graphics and stuff you don't really need.

Answer:-
It would have been nice to know your background in terms of whether this is your 1st android and which was the previous phone you had.. Nevertheless I'll try to give you a brief idea.
Advantages:-
1. UI - HTC Sense UI is the best android adaptation. Gives lots and lots of customisation options, and looks beautiful. I generally found the responsiveness of HTC better than others. But this is subjective. Also, I like the gallery of this phone better than the stock android gallery used by samsung/lg. Again a personal choice.
2. Solid Build quality. Sleek and looks executive.
3. Updated to froyo, so you get the advantages of making it a wifi hotspot.
4. Lots of apps available from the android market. You won't stop exploring this phone for months.
5. In terms of social networking, it's very good.
Disadvantages:-
1. Screen resolution -
2. Camera though 5 meg, but not great. Has problem in the image stabilisation department.
3. Video player - if you want to watch a lot of videos, do not buy this phone. You will have to convert all videos and downscale them to an inferior resolution.

[Varun] It is a totally free upgrade. You do not have to pay anything for it..
Also can i download it from website and do it my own or do i need to take it to the service center?
[Varun] You can do it on your own. You do not have to take it anywhere. Just go to :-
Settings-> About Phone -> System Software updates. Press "check for updates". It will prompt you with the steps. Just follow the steps. The file is about 60MB, so it would be better if you use a wifi connection to upgrade, but Normal 2G GPRS/EDge can also be used.
Do not forget to sync your data. Though I did not face any data loss even though i had not synced/ backed up my stuff..
