Instagram coming to Windows Phone, leaked screenshot reveals, but you have to wait till May

These days it seems that Twitter accounts are being created with the sole purpose to leak tech info in the wild and gauge reaction, or avoid repercussions, and the aptly named @anontechleaks is the new kid on the block here.

We know Instagram is coming to Windows Phone eventually, and Nokia even created its own #2instawithlove effort to encourage faster pace, while we also saw the Instagram app Live Tile lurking in a promo Lumia ad.

Now the latest leak is directly a screenshot from the Windows Store, which shows the app as it would supposedly appear ready for your downloading pleasure, indicating that the launch should be around May: "...Templerun 2 realracing 3 Instagram and others aren't launch until may 2013...its in wp store but aren't downloadable(need permission)..." Just in time for the fresh batch of Lumias announced at MWC, it seems.
