I bought a Desire HD. Since the battery is not there to keep as long, I have not bought directly a couple more USB cable, so I can the Desire at work, on the go, in the car, etc. invite, without my having to make sure that I always take with the charger. So far, the cables make reliable.
PS: 0,6m like a first occur a long time but unpacked but surely that is quite short, for my purposes perfectly.
