Motorola DROID headed to Germany as the Motorola MILESTONE
Let’s be clear right off the bat: this is no rumor. The Motorola DROID is steaming towards a release on O2 Germany under the name MILESTONE. The news of this came from a German blog which leaked a photo of a business guide (pic after the jump) as well as an official O2 device price list which shows the MILESTONE coming in at 404.20€ or $594.93 USD before taxes (and subsidies). If that isn’t proof enough, we pulled the image above from from O2’s site after a simple Google query. No doubt there will be some people Stateside that refuse to go over to Verizon to get the DROID (we get a huge kick out of network fanboyism), so how many of you would be willing to import one of these Android 2.0 behemoths even if it lacks US 3G?
Thanks, Schreifels!

Did none of you guys see this today?

Apparently, it IS coming to T-mobile.
As for the 850/1900 3G band one, I would guess Rogers in Canada will be seeing that.
that just ruined my day. i was hoping to see it on at&t
That is fake. I think we would have seen the proper FCC documents by now since we already have them for all other versions.
at&t will not get the gsm version of this phone.it would be to much competition for the iphone.we all know how much at&t depends on the iphone.plus i believe moto is on better terms with tmobile.
I think it’s safe to assume that the version they will get is this one: https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/prod/oet/forms/blobs/retrieve.cgi?attachment_id=1183562&native_or_pdf=pdf
Which has 900/2100 3G + Quad-band EDGE meaning those of us in the US are out of luck unless you can deal with EDGE only.
The one we want is FCC ID: IHDP56KC5
This one is IHDP56KC2
have fun with the official Website

so no sat nav for us but we get multi touch when the USA dont. what gives? source gsmarenna.com
it’s probably not a “google experience phone” which is down to the carrier i think.
Can’t believe the BG article above doesn’t even mention the rumour (?) that the Motorola Milestone has multi-touch whereas the Motorola DROID does not.
I thought this was a rumour…
Well not a rumour now then! LOL
Guys this is not a rumor its already been confirmed, Europa here we come! The next big question will be – When will be the official release to U.K, Hope it will not take too long though, ayt verizon?
