The Motorola Milesetone, otherwise known as the Droid in the US, looks set to hit the UK early next month.

The Android handset has been spotted at a handful of online retailers that state the phone will be available from December 7, despite Motorola saying that there were no plans to release the phone in the UK.

The phone is available from Superetrader, Clove and Expansys for £424, sim-free. Last month we confirmed the Droid wouldn’t be sold by T-Mobile or O2, so it could still be sold via 3 mobile, Orange or Vodafone.

If the sites do have the phone in stock, then it’s likely that the Milestone will be available in mobile phone shops before Christmas.
