Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 'NoDo' update starts rolling out, brings copy / paste and other fun additions

Don't mind that ruckus over in the corner -- that's just millions of Windows Phone 7 users jumping around in boundless celebration. After hearing that the so-called NoDo update would be splashing down on WP7 phones in early February, it seems as if the coders at Microsoft took a few extra weeks to get things just right. Today, the company updated their Windows Phone update history to describe the new features that are rolling out in staggered fashion to phones around the globe, and the standout addition is the copy and paste functionality that AT&T's HD7S will ship with later in the year. You'll also see your apps and games load faster, your marketplace searches refined and your WiFi performance improved. There's also a host of Outlook, messaging, Facebook, audio and camera improvements, though it remains unclear if said video camera now retains your shooting preferences even after you exit the app. Hang tight if you haven't seen your update notification just yet, and be sure to let us know how the new build is treating you down in comments below.

[Thanks]

  1. hopefuly I will not need to wait for a fix update for the NoDo update, because that's how it runs at Microsoft

  2. Sorry the browser sucked. It was like using the blackberry browser. Most
    sites didn't render properly. Using two apps to sync podcasts on the Mac
    isn't done either. The market was not complete either. Try searching for
    twitter and you'll see what I mean. Shall I begin to rant about the lack
    of outlook integration with an effing Microsoft product. Don't get me wrong
    I love the idea and still want one but ill wait. Regarding my purchase I'm
    happy with T-Mobile and my rooted mytouch 4g running gingerbread. Nexus s
    would be cool but the lack of hspa+ and T-Mobile discount killed it.
