Vodafone Australia Approves Mango, Telstra To Follow?

Gizmodo AU

Sheeds at Windows Phone Down Under spotted that Vodafone’s announced it’s completed testing on the Mango update for its HTC 7 Trophy phone. He then added to the coup by getting comment out of Telstra on the issue.

Vodafone’s blog includes the update notice for its currently offered HTC Trophy 7, noting briefly amongst a sea of Android updates that

Testing for Windows Phone “Mango” firmware update has been completed and approved. Awaiting deployment from Microsoft.”

A really good spot from Sheeds there, and he followed it up by getting a quote from Telstra’s crowd support team, who confirmed that Mango should be coming for Telstra’s devices ‘in Spring’.[Vodafone and Telstra via Windows Phone Down Under]

      Surely it can’t take too long, I mean, how hard can it be for them from this point?
      I’m really missing Mango- it really is good (reverted back to NoDo last night).
      Anyone know a landing page to subscribe to Mango release information on Vodafone?
