Wow talk about raising threads from the dead... anyways.
I got the Milestone on launch day in Canada, and I have to say I'm still satisfied. The keyboard is definitely not a touch-typers' dream but it's functional and has been useful on many occasions. (mostly developing work) Build quality is also very good, if a bit on the heavy side. CPU is also very OC friendly, 1Ghz isn't even a stretch and makes it nearly the fastest Android phone on the market. (behind Samsung's new 1Ghz cpu)


Comparison to the iP4? Spec wise the aging Milestone loses obviously. I don't like comparing phones between "market-verses" because, without apps/games, all smartphones are gaudy feature phones. What I have realized is that the touchscreen experience is quite a bit less refined versus the 3g/3gs and ip4. Apple's touch screens from my experience are quite a bit more accurate and support 2+ simultaneous touch points. Milestone only supports 2 max.

Froyo should be coming soon enough, Verizon already announced plans for a 2.2 roll out; thought doesn't guarantee Milestone will get the same treatment, but we can hope. Plus there's the MotoFrenzy nandroid rom for those who want a 2.2 preview.
