The new version of Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 mobile platform termed Mango will feature several updates including an enhanced web browser based on same engine as Internet Explorer 9. According to an xml file discovered by UnwiredView, LG is prepping to soon release a new Windows Phone 7 handset called E700 armed with Internet Explorer 9.
No other details like the look of the phone, its various specifications or camera resolution were revealed. This handset that comes equipped with built-in IE9 browser is slated for release sometime around the Mango availability.
