Default Windows Phone 7.1 (Mango) on Video

http://www.phonescoop.com

Phonescoop got some hands-on time with Mango - well, someone else's hands - and this fills in a few of the blanks that I've been wondering about. Mango will really enhance Windows Phone, it's just a shame it's not going to be out until the fall. Let's hope it's early fall rather than late fall...

I don't think we'll see that until there's an updated minimum chassis spec...which I'd guess will happen with Windows Phone 8. But keep in mind that unless there's some missing functionality at the OS level, I think an OEM could put in a front-facing camera right now, couldn't they?

I doubt that. OEM should have a good reason to do that, such as already proven software to use with a camera, such as Skype. Android has google talk, that gmail users love, Apple has FaceTime, but there's nothing for Windows Phone. Live Msngr? Where did it go?
