Hot on the heals of the June 18th announcement of the Microsoft Surface tablets for Windows 8, yesterday we got to hear all about our plans for Windows Phone 8… and Windows Phone 7.8.
If you have a Windows Phone 7.5 device today, then you have a great update to look forward to in Windows Phone 7.8.
However, the real star was the upcoming Windows Phone 8 which will take advantage of new hardware and a change in the underlying OS to deliver a awesome next generation phone experience… which includes the ability to deliver top notch C/C++ applications to take advantage of multi-core and higher resolution screens. Simple superb!
