We’re just weeks away from Mobile World Congress where industry experts expect Microsoft will be sharing news and information regarding the next update for their smartphone OS, Tango. From what we’ve heard through various leaks and unnamed sources, Tango will be an update designed to bring the lowest minimum hardware down even further so Microsoft can compete in the lower-end smartphone categories and markets.

Aside from that, there isn’t much else we think we know about the update as Microsoft has done a pretty good job at keeping things quiet about the future of the platform. What has been reported by WPSauce and repeated by The Verge is that the next update could bring support for over 120 different languages (currently there is support for 35) giving the software manufacturer the ability to go after geographic locations which are usually overlooked by the likes of Apple and their iOS platform. Additionally, there is word that the future of Windows Phone will also give developers support for writing apps in lower-level programming languages, like C++.

All of this is speculation until we hear anything official from Microsoft, so take it as such.

Tango to Bring Support for Over 120 New Languages and Support for C++? is a post from Windows 7 News & Tips - Latest Microsoft Windows 7 News, Tips, Themes, Wallpapers & Guides. Visit Windows 7 News & Tips for the Latest Microsoft Windows 7 News, Tips, Themes, Wallpapers & Guides.
