Update:Microsoft announced that Windows Phone Mango is now code complete and released to manufacturing, which are now open for manufacturers and carriers to announce new devices worldwide. Microsoft revealed a number of devices earlier this month, including a new Samsung device which appears to be similar to the company’s Galaxy S II phone. Microsoft is also expected to release a new build of Windows Phone Mango to developers shortly, expect to hear news about this by the end of the week.
