Motorola gives Milestone 2 an (accidental) official debut

We knew it was coming eventually, and Motorola just let us know about it a bit too soon. The Milestone 2, the International edition of the Droid 2 with Motoblur is coming soon, we just weren’t supposed to know it yet.

The reveal came from a promo video posted on Motorola’s YouTube account. The video was quickly yanked from YouTube, but not before some were able to see it, and others were able to get ahold of it to post it on the site again. Again, the content of the video isn’t exactly too surprising but apparently Motorola wasn’t ready to release it just yet.

From the video we know that the Milestone 2 look exactly like the Droid 2, just with a slightly different paint job and the Motorola Blur logo on the back. The specs shown are: 1 GHz OMAP processor, a 5 MP camera, 512 MB of RAM and the same 8 GB of on-board storage (expandable up to 40 GB, which Moto is happy to point out). The phone runs on Android 2.2, and includes the standard WiFi hotspot and Flash player capabilities.

It makes sense that we’d see this phone eventually, but the video being pulled makes me wonder when Motorola plans on debuting the phone. We’ll obviously be seeing it soon, but apparently not yet. The sooner the better for Motorola, those outside of the US deserve to have the same phone as those of us here, even if it does have Motoblur installed.
