Windows Phone Tango to Target Low-Cost Phones?

While the tech community remains crazy over Windows Phone Mango, an update of which was released to manufacturers for testing two weeks ago, they now begin to speculate what is the next step of this mobile OS.

Rumors about the so-called “Windows Phone Tango,” which serves as an in-betweener for Mango and “Apollo” (Windows Phone 8), have been circulating lately. According to Mary-Jo Foley of ZDNet, her sources claim the Tango would most likely appear in lower-priced handsets–mostly by Nokia–and apparently target the Asian market “largely or even exclusively.”

Foley, meanwhile, believes that Tango will most likely be a minor release, as Microsoft saves its effort and energy for Windows Phone 8, which is said will be available by late 2012.
