14 DAY TRIAL // Among the handsets that should become available for purchase with the Windows Phone Mango operating system on board in the following months, we can count the Acer M310 handset, which already made an appearance into the wild.
The smartphone is now sure to be on its way to shelves soon, and some more info on what it would include when made available for purchase emerged.
Among the features that it should sport we can count some related to the multimedia capabilities that users who will acquire it will be able to enjoy.
For example, the handset should sport video output to HDMI, a feature that was not available with other Windows Phone handsets before.
Moreover, the new mobile phone is expected to include DLNA support, so that users will be able to play content on TV, Xbox, or other DLNA supported devices over a WiFi connection.
All these features, brought to the spotlight by Windows Phone NZ, haven't been seen in other Windows Phone devices before, though that does not mean that new handsets will not included.
While the Acer M310 is the first Windows Phone device confirmed with the HDMI-out, for example, handsets like the HTC Eternity have been already rumored to come with similar features into the mix, which suggests that other devices could also include it.
Among the other features that Acer M310 should include, we can count 8GB of internal memory, and similar looks with those of the Acer W4 smartphone that was showcased at CompuTex.
In addition to Acer's Windows Phone device, the news site mentions an Asus phone, of which only an engineering sample was spotted.
However, it appears that the mobile phone might arrive on shelves with a front-facing camera, which should enable video calling capabilities.
Considering the fact that Microsoft has recently announced plans to purchase Skype, which already offers video calling on mobile devices, it does not come too much as a surprise that future Windows Phones would include this feature, although it has not been confirmed until now.
