Motorola Milestone Is Official In Germany

Nov 2 2009, 3:56am CST | by Luigi Lugmayr

The Motorola Milestone already appeared over the weekend, but now Motorola presents the Milestone aka Droid in full glory on their German site.
There is actually one interesting difference between the Droid and the Milestone. The two finger pinch zoom gesture is available on the German Milestone, but not on the U.S. Droid. Engadget features video of the Milestone doing the pinch. The German Milestone specifications on the Motorola site confirm that zooming with two fingers is a feature of the Milestone.
The Droid is apparently lacking the feature because of Apple's pressure. I am not sure though, why this does not apply for the German market.

The Motorola Milestone is going to be offered by O2 and Vodafone according to Heise in Germany.
