The Motorola PRO is the GSM-only version of the Motorola DROID PRO, but this time the phone is aimed at worldwide markets.
A very different design from most other Motorola Android phones, the PRO has a smallish 3.1" 320 x 480 pixel touchscreen and a Black Berry-style QWERTY keyboard. Here, the primary market is corporate customers rather than consumers, so some of the added software features include VPN support, remote wipe and device encryption. The PRO also supports Skype and can synchronize with Microsoft Exchange, all in a package that looks "business sober" rather than flashy.
The hardware isn't a patch on something like the Motorola Milestone 2, which has a much better display and keyboard.. but the additional software will make the PRO much easier for businesses to manage.

Some other useful features include "mobile hotspot" support, where the Motorola PRO can be used as a WiFi hotspot for up to 5 users, and like all Android phones the PRO has built in GPS and access to Google Maps Navigation.
The fairly large 1420 mAh battery is quoted as providing up to 8 hours talktime on GSM, although it will be a lot less on 3G which most people will use it on. The PRO measures 119 x 61 x 12mm and weighs 134 grams, so it's no smaller than the Milestone 2 but quite a bit lighter.
It isn't the world's most exciting Android phone, but it does seem to meet corporate needs rather well. If you're looking at a way of getting Android into your business, then the Motorola PRO could be a good place to start. There's no exact word on availability, but we would expect to see this sometime during Q2 2011.
