Yeah they already posted a new "Gen 2" minimum spec (keyword minimum) and also mentioned today that new phones will be coming this fall with mango already loaded. The Skype deal I think will take a little longer to have it's full effect. We'll see a Skype app. as already shown at MIX11, then sometime post-Mango will be another update with Skype more integrated into the OS hubs and such. Front facing cams are already rumored to be coming on the next gen phones this fall so I suspect some will and some won't initially, but once Skype is fully baked in, they will mostly all have them unless targeted maybe to a lower end buyer or something.

Im not going to be funny this time but you do realize most if not all of this Android already does right? Not to mention Ice Cream Sandwich is coming this year and the implementation of full NFC technology.. thats already present in the Nexus.

pfft as if, we dont know all of the 500 features that are included yet, but it will probably surpass android and iOS in terms of being user friendly. all of the features of android without all the fragmentation and unsecureness with it.

Does Android pay your bills or something?

hes just a little butthurt that wp7 is going to dethrone android within a few years and now will have the same features in a much more user friendly package

[AZTECHKA]

Either way... Trolling never helps anyone and it just makes you look threatened.
I was a fanboi of MS for the longest time... Now I rock an Android. I can't tell you what'll be in my pocket in a year or two. It's just going to have to be something that works for ME. Regardles of what anyone else tells me.
I know lots and lots of iPhone users. I was never swayed. The only thing I covet is their battery life and the accessories available for the os.
But It doesn't matter cuz I have a choice.
That's the beauty of it all and the beauty of this site.

Hey great post and find. Thanks for sharing I'm really looking forward to the 2nd of Gen of wp7 phones. I will check out the vids and spec/features.

No problem here I am passionate about WP7, I wish I could get a WP7 with a beta....

If you look on the home page to PPCGeeks, they still don't show anything, shows ya how much this site cares about Microsoft and Windows phone 7.

I don't know about you but, this is pretty huge news when it comes to Windows Phone 7...

[AZTECHKA]

Yeah... Some have complained to staff about that in particular... I think it's hard for staff to please everyone at once... But as WP7 gains momentum I see things getting a little bit better here.

***** UPDATE - Actually I just checked the front page and saw 7 articles about microsoft and at least 4 related to WP7 and or Mango.

[DavidinCT]

Yea, they finally posted up about mango (about 8-10 hours later)....

Anyway, back to the subject on hand. "Bing Vision" looks pretty cool

Windows Phone Mango and Bing Vision hands-on -- Engadget

THis could make my life better, I always look for the best deal, and if I can hop in a store, take a shot and search the net for the best price, that would save a ton of $$ over the year.

[AZTECHKA]

Yeah... I use google shopper from time to time... Unfortunatelly I didn't have my EVO during the holiday shopping season so didn't get a chance to use it. But I really like bing and use it on my PC and on my EVO and that feature will only make it more appealing.
