Android and Motorola Milestone (Droid) bummers

What pisses me off about Android / Motorola Milestone (European version of the Droid).

DISCLAIMER: I do like Android and the Milestone. Except for some very pesky issues below it’s a great match and I’d definitely buy it again.

RANT: also, there’s little choice: Windows Mobile and BlackBerry have half the features (except for e-mail on BB, obviously) and while stock S60 actually can do more than stock Android, you have to fight the UI rather than just using it. The iPhone is, uh, the iPhone (i.e. well polished but limited software on extremely crappy hardware).

On to the issues:

0. the basic notion is that European users are ignored by both Motorola and Google. The Milestone does _not_ have the “with Google” logo on the back while the Droid… um, does (see what I did there?). OTA updates are not available for Milestone users and since most of the Milestones sold in Europe by Expansys are carrier-free, this problem cannot be blamed on anybody but Motorola and Google.
