Motorola Milestone coming to Orange UK soon!!

[epuiatti]

I stopped off in carphone warehouse on my way home today and asked one of their staff when the milestone was due(was expecting a confused face) but he told me that it will be coming to Orange UK in a "few weeks", i asked him if it was just a rumour and he told me "its pretty set in stone, but they haven't announced it to the public yet". With Nexus One coming to Vodafone in a few weeks too, its looking good for us brits now.

That's good news! The Milestone deserves more sales channels than just SIM-free via online sellers.

I heard that Orange dropped the N97 Mini just after New Year due to a high number of returns, so maybe they are getting the Milestone instead.

Would hope that Orange doesn't try and customise the device to much and allow OTA updates from motorola rather than controlling the firmware.

Milestone, X10 or Nexus One. Whoever gets to the UK with a decent package from O2 or Orange first gets my business. Ive had enough of waiting for a phone since October 09.

Why not just buy a nexus one direct from google and choose a sim only deal? All the UK providers do them on a 1month contract...

Hey Amdroid, Nexus One will be on Vodafone soon. Milestone on Orange is good news if it's true.

Ive never been with Vodafone, Ive always been happy with the service from O2 and Orange. T-Mobile was a let down so I'm almost scared to move to another provider just because they offer the phone I want at this point in time.
