anyone knows how to reliably order / import phones and other gadgets not officially available in Malaysia.

am willing to pay a bit of a premium to bring droid, from a reputable source?

Well from where it stands the only source is to get it from German right? Since that's the only place released for GSM version

answer for your question ... pre order now .. at germany website ... i din noe they actualy will send here if u do that ..

the item is not out in germany market yet .. just pre-order online ..

correct me if im wrong ..

Actually, it costs 481 euro without contract. And no, i dont think they'll send it to msia

Didn't really notice this phone especially during the press release. However after going through a few reviews and articles, it is pretty impressive. Hopefully it's coming here soon.
One of the good reviews available:

"i work at marketing department , Motorola branch in penang so i noe la"
"my fren/relative/gf work at Motorola company in Europe/malaysia .. so i noe la"

sry .. i din tolerate any source-less info
-------

Motorola Milestone German Ad .

it will be huge sell in germany .. with only 1 euro for the motorola milestone with 2 years contract (20 euro monthly)

motorola do like long term benefit contract ... even cheaper milestone in germany ...

so motorola do need near perfect hardware in terms of long contract agreement .. so that user/customer wont complain for hardware malfunction/lack/problem .. since in this early stage .. did occur problem within Verizon Motorola Droid ..
internal speaker problem
autofocus slowpoke-ness
i think this problem is not tooooo serious yet .. hope no ..dead screen/touch screen malfunction .. then motorola will be sooo "rich" for in contract user complain

Wah, I am actually thinking about HTC Hero now, or wait for Droid.
But I think better wait for droid huh? Droid surely will make Hero drop price also.

i m so anticipating for this phone.. tot it never reaches malaysia and yet now it's going to launch here

If its true then, start making your plans dudes~ the DROID is coming and its gonna burn a whole in your wallet~

oh yes!!
with n900 out of the picture.. hello dROID!
exactly when end of 2009 ? before xmas?

looking forward for droid!!! traders!!! faster bring in!!

when i get the exact launch date i will update here ^^

all of u can buy this phone at my friend shop in sunway pyramid ~
delivery service also available in KL/Selangor area~

wow make sure to update us ya~ and shop address to~

Shop name and floor please!

Thanks! Update us on the price too if possible.

if ur fren has stocks.. then all phone shops should have this also already..

some shops have better offers (prices, etc) as well as might having them earlier than other shop
so its better to know than not to. Plus its easier than going out yourself every single day checking the shops to see if they have it already
