I have found tons of complains regarding Milestone and this is the most common one.
Motorola Milestone most common problem is touchscreen not behaving properly, some refers this to "ghost hand". The touchscreen will behave like someone is messing with your screen.This problems occurs in Milestone which are 8 to 12 months old. This is because Motorola Milestone has a design flaw regarding on the slide design. While sliding on the phone it creates a wear and tear on the flex ribbon located inside the phone, thus exposing the metal wires, which causes the screen behave abnormally (check picture)
According to a Chinese Website it can be fixed by applying insulation to the exposed wires

It may or may not be the solution for your touch screen problem but its worth the try, rather than replacing the whole digitizer which will cost you money.
