This is a very interesting day indeed as Microsoft outed the next Windows Phone 7 update. Multi-tasking and more social friendly features are coming our way.
What's also interesting is that Microsoft confirmed Nokia mobile devices running Mango is in the works.
What this means for the mobile landscape is anyone's guess right now. It really depends on when Nokia gets their WP7 phones out on the market. I'm gonna go ahead and say that they will be rushed out on a limited release in Nokia's backyard where home field advantage might still mean something. If it does come out around the Holidays, it may have to contend with a newly released iPhone (4GS or 5) and whatever else Google has coming with an Android update that features Honeycomb UI.
What I'm interested in seeing if this will reverse Nokia's fortunes and, if so, at Apple or Google's expense.
Now, we'll have to see if Microsoft can actually deliver the update on time. That itself is the trickiest part of all.
