Microsoft to Unveil 1st Windows Phone 7 Update at CES

It seems that Microsoft is set to announce the first update to its new Windows Phone 7 OS during CES (Consumer Electronics Show). The update will most likely hit carrier branded handsets by February.

The update should bring in the copy and paste function which we had earlier told you about. Apart from the copy and aste function, support for Qualcomm 7×30 chipset, a CDMA location stack and a number of other fixes are said to be included.

The second update with codename “Mango” will roll out later during the year and will be more of an upgrade rather than an update. This update will bring major changes including Internet Explorer 9, Trident 5 rendering engine, HTML 5, Silverlight and gesture support.
