Des nouvelles des mises à jour que Windows Phone 7 va recevoir circulent depuis la sortie des nouveaux téléphones, mais les dernières fuites des mises à jour pourraient être plus révélatrices que les rumeurs précédentes. Les deux mises à jour majeures pour Windows Phone 7 portent le nom de code. NoDo (Pas de beignets) et Mangue.
Selon le rapport:
The first update: “No Donuts”
The first Windows Phone 7 software update, codenamed “NoDo,” will RTM in January, possibly this very week and in time for the CES keynote. But it won’t ship to users until early February, once the carriers sign off on it. This update will include the famed copy and paste functional addition, support for the Qualcomm 7×30 smart phone chipset, a CDMA location stack, and a number of software fixes.
“NoDo” stands for “No Donuts” and could be so named because the a minor Android update was called “Donut.”
Major update: “Mango”
While I’m not sure on the timing, the first major Windows Phone 7 update contains a piece called “Mango” internally; this will add Internet Explorer 9 with with the Trident 5 rendering engine, HTML 5 and Silverlight, and gesture support. This is the “75xx” code branch, which suggests that it could be called Windows Phone 7.5. (But probably won’t be … It actually calls itself Windows Phone 7.2 at this time.). Internally, this code branch is referred to as the “entertainment” branch, which suggests other, non-IE functionality as well.
La mangue n'est pas planifiée directement après NoDo, mais fait partie d'une future mise à jour majeure. D'autres mises à jour peuvent être émises après NoDo, indique le code secret Windows Phone.
