The much anticipated and discussed Motorola MILESTONE is already available in the UK for 450 pounds. But the Christmas shopping choice is limited, because eXpansys UK hold the MILESTONE exclusivity until the end of the year.

Motorola's biggest hope is already available in the UK and can be yours SIM-free for 450 pounds. Of course you can also opt for a subsidizing T-Mobile contract.

If you need a memory refresh, the MILESTONE is the European version of the USA DROID. It's the same Android 2.0 running touchscreen slider packing high-res 3.7-inch capacitive touchscreen, full QWERTY sliding keyboard, all-round connectivity, 5 megapixel camera, fast ARM Cortex A8 processor and all that comes in only 13.7mm thickness, which makes the MILESTONE probably the slimmest side-sliding QWERTY phone to date.

Well, there is only one difference with its DROID sibling and that is the multi-touch support. The MILESTONE is capable of all that fancy pinching gestures, well known from the iPhone.

Here's a quick video ad of the new mobile:
