Nokia's new Lumia 800 Windows Phone 7 smartphone will be on sale SIM-free at UK-based online retailer Clove.co.uk from 1st December.
Until now, only high-street stores Carphone Warehouse, Phones4U and Expansys were offering the SIM-free version of the Nokia Lumia 800, with Clove's best estimate for a SIM-free variant of Nokia's first Windows Phone 7 to become available was January 2012.
"Our stock of SIM-free UK spec of the Nokia Lumia 800 was due to be delayed until January, but it has now been brought forward until the 1st December", explains Clove on its blog.
Clove has put a £369 plus VAT price tag on the device, which can be pre-ordered online from here, for delivery in December.
In related news, analysts have knocked down first-quarter sales estimates for the Lumia 800 by half to around 500,000 units, down from a million, reports Channel Register.
