Retailers expect Dell WinPho 7 smartphone early next month

Dell's Windows Phone 7 handset, the elongated Venue Pro, is set to arrive over here on 8 November.

The PC giant's own local website has neither hide nor hair of the handset, but retailer Clove has begun listing the WinPho smartphone with said release date appended.

It wants £441 for the Sim-free version of the smartphone.

Google Shopping lists a handful of other, less well-known vendors also now offering the Venue Pro, but all want you to pay more than Clove does.

What Dell itself will charge remains to be seen. ®
