The Windows Phone Mango update will be known as WP 7.5

26 April, 2011
We've just got confirmation that the next major update to the Windows Phone mobile OS will bring its own version number. Obviously Microsoft thought that the update, codenamed Mango, brings enough...

                Great to see that Microsoft is bringing some guns to bear against Android. This will only make both OS's better as they vie for top position on the market share - the only way to reach this is by developing and expanding constantly in stability, speed, and options.

                Will be an interesting race!

                    AnonD-733, 26 Apr 2011Hello All, Good Day i have question, does WP7 support A... moreIt does not support Arabic as far as I know. It is not possible to support Arabic by any mean. It can only support Arabic in some devices and only in SMS reading (Not writing) and I guess in browser. No right to left support so you cannot write from right to left :( bad for us I guess. Waiting for Arabic support in HTC HD7 :)

                                        i played with a windows-phone device, and the responssiveness was -as mentioned- just top, but it would have been much cooler if they offered multible screens with live widgets, they should make an option to do that!
