Windows expert Paul Thurrott
reports Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 has reached released to manufacturing (RTM) phase. He also notes that the RTM version features various user interfaces updates, and some improvements for the Facebook integration.
Well, the day has finally arrived. I was told very early on that Windows Phone would most likely be released to manufacturing (RTM) in August, and they missed that mark by just a day, which isn't so horrible for a completely new platform. Anyway, the Windows Phone 7 OS has been finalized and sent to Microsoft's hardware and carrier partners so that they can integrate their own software and services solutions and ship new devices to customers later in the year. No word yet on the launch, but I don't believe the October/November plans have changed.
