Mango update for WP7

I’m happy to finally receive the update for my Windows Phone 7 device - the Optimus 7 (now starting to dislike the handset itself, but the update makes it better).

Some things immediately appreciated by me:

  • Subtle improvements to the UI - noticeable in Zune, Pictures, App list
  • Shutter sound in camera is less boisterous - and can be muted by lowering volume
  • Twitter integration (good for sharing quick updates, maybe not so much for sharing images)
  • Ability to email/share video (previously only images)
  • Linked inboxes (yet to see if this works brilliantly)
  • Multitasking/recent applications
  • Integration of chat clients into messaging (Fb, Live, etc)
  • Improvements to IE (and Youtube)

So far so good.
