American’s know the first Motorola Android Phone as the Motorola CLIQ but for everyone else the device is called the Motorola DEXT. Neither device had a release date identified beyond the general “4th quarter” timeframe, but now if you check out the Motorola DEXT page on Motorola.com (bottom right) we get more details:

There you go – pre-orders start September 22nd with availability in early October.

How about the United States? Seeing as how they held the announcement/event in the United States and introduced it FIRST as the CLIQ and secondarily as the DEXT, I assume T-Mobile will launch the phone in the same timeframe. Hopefully we will see a simultaneous same-day global launch  – carriers and manufacturers don’t have enough of those.

Let the wait begin my European friends!
