No, Windows Phone Mango is not Microsoft moving into the fruit business :) Windows Phone Mango is Microsoft's latest major update to its smartphone operating system Windows Phone.

News has it that Windows Phone Mango will add more than 500 new features to Windows phone.  This is the largest update to the Windows Phone operating system since it was first released last November, 2010

One of the major updates included in Windows Phone Mango is the multitasking capability.  This was a feature that was lacking in the initial release and which disappointed a lot of would-be users last year.

Windows Phone Mango also bring unified mailboxes, which isn't new if you've been using other platforms like the iOS.  Microsoft however, added the capability of choosing which emails you wanted to be put together, this is a welcome feature for users who would like to separate personal emails from the work or business related email accounts.

No specific release date yet on when we can actually see the Windows Phone Mango in action.
