Motorola Droid Sales March On

Motorola (MOT Quote) Droid sales continue at a steady rate in their second week. Put that somewhere between brisk and halting.

The latest estimate comes from the familiar Broadpoint AmTech analyst Mark McKechnie, the original "guesstimator" who put Droid sales at Verizon (VZ Quote) stores at 100,000 a week ago. McKechnie says recent checks show the "sales pace remains strong."

McKechnie is now confident that Motorola is on track to sell Verizon 600,000 Droid phones this year.

Overall, McKechnie says Motorola will likely sell 1 million Android phones if you include the tally of Best Buy (BBY Quote) and online Droid sales along with Cliq sales at Deutsche Telekom's (DT Quote) T-Mobile and Milestone (Canadian Droid) sales at Rogers Communications (RCI Quote).

The 600,000 year-end number is more consistent with the 400,000 Droid supply estimate last week by Michael Cote of the Cote Collaborative.
