Windows Phone 390 Published by

Microsoft has two updates planned for its mobile platform next year, and its application store has a lot of apps.



From InformationWeek:
Two big events happened in 2011 for Windows Phone. First, Nokia announced it was abandoning Symbian and switching to Windows Phone, and it released a few devices late in the year with more planned in 2012. Second, Microsoft shipped the Mango update to just about every user. Both events generated a lot of news, but sales have yet to move upward. Will 2012 be a better year for the platform?

Microsoft is already planning two major updates in 2012, code named Tango and Apollo. WMPoweruser has obtained a few slides showing the roadmap for WP7. Both Tango and Apollo are targeted for the fourth quarter. It looks like it will be a bit of a fork in the platform.
