The official Windows Phone Blog has confirmed that the first Windows Phone 7 update is going to be released today. However, don’t expect this update to add new functionality such as copy and paste to your device. In essence this is but a minor update for Windows Phones in preparation for the first major update that is due for release in March.
This isn’t the update you’ve probably been reading about or perhaps waiting for, the one with copy and paste (but that’s coming soon).In order to update your Windows Phone, you will need to connect it to your computer and then start Zune for Windows or the Windows Phone 7 Connector for Mac and then simply follow the onscreen instructions to update your phone.
… this update is a relatively small one.
What’s in this update?
This first update for Windows Phone is designed to improve the software update process itself. So while it might not sound exciting, it’s still important because it’s paving the way for all future goodie-filled updates to your phone, such as copy and paste or improved Marketplace search.
When will I get this update?
We’ll begin sending it out today. But to help ensure the process goes smoothly, it won’t be sent to everyone at once. So you might see an update message before your spouse, co-worker, or neighbor (or vice versa). This is a common industry practice. That said, we understand you’re eager to have the latest software on your phone, and our goal is to deliver it to you as quickly as possible.
