Seems you can't buy the phone outright in the UK and have to buy it through network providers. Would have been good to see an unlocked version purchasable direct from Motorola.

You can buy it from Amazon in the UK. That's where I got mine.

  I suppose you mean the Moto G you mentioned elsewhere. For now, I cannot get Amazon to show me a page for the Moto E - specifically looking for "Motorola Moto E" only shows Moto G links.

    The US amazon page for it says: "Special Shipping Information: Due to federal and international regulations, this product can only be shipped within the 50 states." Strange message. I don't believe them anyway, it's more likely Motorola restrictions.

    That is correct. There is no Moto E release here yet. Probably will be a couple of weeks after the carriers get it if it was like the Moto G.

Expansys ( http://www.expansys.com/ http://www.expansys.com/ ) have pre-order placeholder pages up for non-carrier SIM-free Moto E & 4G G models in black or white. It looks like you'll be able to buy them here soon enough: http://www.expansys.com/motorola-moto-e-black-261546/ http://www.expansys.com/motorola-moto-e-black-261546/ http://www.expansys.com/motorola-moto-g-4g-8gb-black-261577/ http://www.expansys.com/motorola-moto-g-4g-8gb-black-261577/
