Motorola DEXT goes on sale in the UK tomorrow, maybe sneaking out today

Statesiders will have to wait another month before getting their hands on the Motorola CLIQ, but the party's getting started early in the UK: the DEXT, as it's called across the pond, goes on sale at Orange shops tomorrow and Phones4U stores the day after. Still not soon enough for you? We're also told that the Orange store in Milton Keynes will be having early sales today -- do let us know if you snag one, won't you?

Big bucket of boring.

Agreed. I thought Motorola was dead by now.

Anyway, after today's HTC HD2 announcement I can't think about any other phone.

Xperia X2 looks great....Due to be released around when I'm due for an upgrade too....If only it had Windows 7 lol

@matt
the X2 is the exact same specs as the X1, and it doesn't look as attractive.

I'm surprised Motorola is still in business. I thought they go out the same way as GM.

This is the smartphone with the interface that nobody can figure how to use. MOTOBLAH.

Needs more bezel.

And thats where Motorola goes and screws things up again - Why does this phone need two different names?! Did the Razr have two different names? No. The iPhone? No. Why would they want to go an confuse people?!

They make it confusing just like English in U.S.A. and Ingles in another country lol. Two different names

This suppose to be 150euros without contract. Is it?

No way in hell.

Milton Keynes? Bit random, isn't it?

Engadget, buzz me when someone brings Android to Snapdragon (damn, I love that name)

[(Unverified) Posted Oct 7th 2009 12:13PM]

I read a report stating that the phone would be £150 not €150.
Also I Iive in the UK and stopped by my local Orange store this morning, the attendant hadn't even heard of the Motorola DEXT or CLIQ and looked at me like I was mentally incapacitated before he dipped into a sale pitch.
Has anyone actually seen this phone around the UK?

I work at Phones 4U, we will have one in stock tomorrow (8th)
it will be free on Orange £35 (1200 minutes, unlimited texts and tinterweb)
if you're a current Orange customer you can have it free for as low as £25 on an upgrade!
