Default Mango for the Pro 7

Hi all,

I see the prices for the Pro 7 have gone down dramatically (just CHF 316 today!) and I'm getting tempted to get myself one.

But I need to be sure there will soon or later be the Mango update possible.

Can someone tell?

Microsoft have said that all current phones will get the update...

...I was tempted too far when it was on offer here for £220 (as opposed to £440!)

Interestingly, no other website apart from ebuyer seems to be putting any discount on the Pro 7 in the UK, so maybe it's got a strange demand pattern...

today, the 7 pro is at 250€ on cdiscount (an important french website); it's far less than other WP7, why?

Right, even the Desire Z is at only 269 on the same shop. Maybe because devices with keyboards are niche products. They probably got stocks to get rid of before a new release. Beside, hardly anyone wants WP7.

Now do I buy one or not; this is the question...

I have HTC 7 Pro and HTC Desire Z from HTC polish distribution (no branding). HTC 7 Pro is very professionally done in comparison with Desire Z. keyboard slide mechanism is a brilliant and solid, and Desire Z is too loose and underdeveloped. Besides is a two different systems so do not compare, depends on what someone more fit. In Poland HTC 7 Pro is cost about 1500 pln =~ 378 euro and ~334 pounds but HTC Desire Z about 1100 pln = ~ 278 euro and ~ 245 pounds.

o2 Germany offers it for 241€ quite some time now. If only there was a way to run Android on it...
