Watch Joe Belfiore demonstrate the new features in WP7's Mango update in an epic video

It is not the first time Joe Belfiore, Microsoft's VP for the Windows Phone Program Management, is standing in front of cameras, elaborating on the new features coming with Windows Phone 7.1, or the so-called "Mango" update.

Bringing more than 500 new features to the Windows Phone platform, the update improves on integrated communication, social networking, Live Tiles presentation and accessing the Internet, not to mention the advanced multi-tasking the platform will be getting.

The update will be available this fall, marking a full year since Microsoft's long-awaited mobile strategy revamp produced handsets with Windows Phone 7 onboard. A number of things happened since then, the most important of which was bagging Nokia as a manufacturing arm for Windows Phone handsets, but until we are waiting for the Mango release to hit WP7 devices, have a look at Joe Belfiore in action below:
