I've had the Milestone since last Thursday, so here's a review made up of the pros and cons:
Thanks Peter

Pros:
- Display + Screen Size: incredible display with great colors and very high resolution. Excellent screen size - not too small (like the Hero's), not too big (like the HD2's).
How can a larger screen be a "Con"? I think you're just jealous

Neutral:

- the battery life. With push, 3G and / or Wifi enabled, it'll only last a day. That sucks.
Just out of interest, does anyone still take the manufacturer's advice any more of fully charging the phone for 10 hours or whatever it is? When I get a new phone and get it home I''m like a little kid on Christmas morning.

The physical keyboard is unnecessary, in my opinion. And you're right - I'm sure the phone would have been lighter without it. However, it doesn't make the phone uncomfortably thick. After a couple of days, you forget it even has a physical keyboard if you don't use it.
I agree, physical keyboards are a bit of a throwback these days in my opinion.

Talking of input and screens, I got my HTC HD phone out last night and used the stylus to type and the HTC Hero owner on the other side of the table said, "A stylus, how old school." Quite funny, I think the stylus is still useful for keyboard input / drawing / scribbling maps. pictures etc, but would it be useful with the Milestone's capacative screen or a finger tips adequate?

I am going to wait for the Nokia N900......I think.
