Currently? No.

Maybe once it's been rooted.

You'll probably have to wait until the phone is rooted on install a different home screen app like aHome or OpenHome (I think there's a free Lite version).

Or, if it's just the widgets you don't like, you could simply remove them from your home screen.

Very good point!

You can also try to remove the Sense completely, I think it's possible somewhere.

While this was possible on older builds of Sense, it's been removed on 2.1 versions. This includes the both the Desire and the Legend. A home replacement app is your best bet for now. Once the device is rooted, it shouldn't be long before a senseless (lol) version of android 2.1 is ported over.

You can install Launcher2 on it then use the Nexus launcher.

I do that on mine now and again but the apps view is a bit sluggish with the Starwars effect on the icons.

You can download Helix Launcher from the Market. Go to manage apps, clear defaults for htc sense. Press home and then pick Helix Launcher. Then you basically have stock 2.1. No live wallpapers though.
