Get ready to party during the middle of this month. Those wild and crazy guys at both Nokia and Microsoft will be loosening their ties during a shindig that the duo is throwing at GamesCon in Cologne, Germany On August 17th. A leaked invitation promises that for those attending, it will be an "evening to remember" featuring "exciting actions and surprises."
Hmm. What could Nokia and Microsoft present at a party that would be make it a memorable? Well, the invitation mentions live act and some DJ's which "guarantee amazing sounds." Or how about the raffle with 3 winners that will each receive a Nokia Windows Phone 7 handset as soon as they are available. That's getting warmer.
With the recently leaked video of the Windows Phone 7 and Mango flavored Nokia Sea Ray and word that the first Mango updated Windows Phone 7 handset is heading for a launch in Japan, perhaps we will see the first Mango updated, Windows Phone 7 powered Nokia handset jump out of a cake. For many, that would be something that would make for an unforgettable party.
Will the first Mango updated, Windows Phone 7 powered Nokia handset show up at this party?
