Amazon will release the Kindle Fire over here in the UK during January 2012, it has been claimed.
The Android-based Fire went on sale in the US on 15 November for $199 (£127), a price point that has got a lot of folk in the UK eager to get their mitts on one.
They won't get it before Christmas, a mole claiming to be close to the planned launch, told Know Your Mobile, but the 7in tablet will be arriving early next year [1].
Heck, it might even be priced as cheaply here as it is in the States - £152 when you add VAT - but don't hold your breath.
