In an interview with PC MAG, AT&T’s senior vice president of mobile devices, Jeff Bradley, revealed that the mobile operator was soon going to launch the updated HTC HD7S but was also “really actively” working with Microsoft and the OEMs on the upcoming launch of new Windows Phone 7 devices sporting the new chassis specifications and Mango.
“Mango will be the next event. With the timing of when [Windows Phone] came out and the timing of Mango, it didn’t leave a natural period in between when we could introduce an interim round of devices,””We’re working very, very actively with the ecosystem and Microsoft.”
HTC is still expected to launch to MSM7X30 based devices this year , the HTC Prime and HTC Ignite but is goes without saying that we can also look for MSM8X55 powered handsets coming from all major OEMs in time for Mango’s launch in the fall.
