Hum, I just love to have USB Host, think of all the hacks you can do with it, I wonder why most mobile maker just disable them on hardware even it is supported on hardware side already, like the Google Nexus One and MOTO Milestone….
Reminds me of my USB host cable on my Windows Mobile O2 Graphite, I plugged in a Playstation Joypad with PS to USB converter and played MAME on it..

Honest, I think it can get better, the overall operating speed was not that “fast” given that this as a “flagship” product.
My feeling is the OS can do more fine tune, we should give it sometime there,
but IMHO, for the price, usage, I will go for an iPad (even I am very not happy with iTunes and the “Open-ness” of iOS)
Working right now, post more later.
Currently thanks to mate J, I am testing a lot of different toys.
Will try to post some of them as a review/preview.
It has been know that a port of Firefox for Android, as known as “Fennec” exist..
It is 4xMB in size (I finally come to this day that my N1 report it is FULL on storage, so I did empty some unused applications.)
Results were quite disappointed, speed was slow on my N1, rendering was messy, and it hangs so many times in my 5 minutes testing period.
I understand it is the first public beta, uninstalled by now, and wish all the best and hope it gets better and better in time.
If you are still interested to try it out yourself, head to:

Just a note to me and anyone want it handy.

Actually, it was released 2 days ago, I was too busy to get my hands on the update…
For more info on how to update, simply read the previous post at: MOTO Milstone HK update 2.0.1 Released
I notice a few things which has been updated, will make post on that next, when I have a bit more time.
I was hinted by users that 2.1 update for Milestone has been leaked.

Since I am at work now, I did not test it yet, use it at your own risk!

Just a reference on getting into Testing Mode on the MOTO Milestone
In phone dialer, dial:
*#*#4636#*#*
You get options like:
– Phone information
– Battery information
– Battery history
– Usage statistics
In Phone information you get to view many internal settings of the phone, like network status/report and signal ref, and you can also set some no so often needed internal settings like SMSC, GSM/WCDMA switch etc.
In Battery information you get to view your battery info.
In Battery history you can see usage in CPU/Network, GPS, Sensor, Partial wake usage and Other usage (like the info you saw in settings battery usage)
In Usage statistics you can view info of usage like App used time, Launch count etc.
Not that much useful for now, but good to keep a reference.
