Flicking through today's Christchurch Press and noticed a set of adds about Telecoms Motorola Android range including the Motorola Flipout with the "coming soon" tag. Had a look on the Telecom website but not listed yet. Glad to see the Flipout is running 2.2 and none of this 1.6 jazz tho.

Looking forward to a greater Android range from other brands hopefully coming to XT with physical buttons and touch ;)

I've had a Milestone for a couple of weeks now, it's pretty damn awesome, couldn't go back to the old Blackberry I had before now.

To clarify as it is not listed above the Motorola Backflip is running Android 1.6.

The Samsung Galaxy is coming soon. Maybe that would be an option lolcano?
