Motorola FIRE is expected to hit the UK sometime in late September
Just only last week, we reported that the Motorola FIRE is expected to become available in the UK courtesy of Clove, but Motorola officially announced today that the handset is coming to the UK towards the end of September.
Again, this time frame is in line to what was previously rumored – though, it still means that people will need to wait a month before picking one up. Nevertheless, the handset might be worth the wait for some people seeing that it’s trying to lure over those traditional BlackBerry users with its portrait style QWERTY keyboard.
Although it’s not the most cutting edge handset on the market, its specs deliver a good balance of form and functionality that will appease business oriented consumers. In fact, it features a 2.8” QVGA touchscreen, Android 2.3 Gingerbread, 3-megapixel camera, 600MHz processor, and FM radio. Additionally, Motorola is touting its exceptional 1,420 mAh battery, which is expected to provide best-in-class battery life by delivering 8 hours of talk and 30 days of standby time.

Now the only thing left to complete the puzzle is an exact release date and pricing – albeit, it wouldn’t surprise us to see this one priced for free when signing up for a contract.
