Motorola MILESTONE 2 Review 2011

Latest Mobile Motorola MILESTONE 2

The Motorola Milestone has been a genuine success for the US Based manufacturer, and an important part of the new Android line up of devices Motorola has released recently. It is no exaggeration to state that not so long ago, Motorola were in real trouble, and close to going out of business. However, some inspired devices running on the Android OS has helped turn the fortunes around of the once number one handset manufacturer, and the Milestone was central to that change. And now we have the next Milestone handset, the imaginatively titled Motorola Milestone 2.
