The Dell Venue Pro is the sibling to the Android powered Dell Venue and the first and only Windows Phone 7 device to host a portrait type keyboard. Anyone who owns one of these handsets will be happy to know that the Windows Phone Tango update is now rolling out for the device.
You can receive the update on your device by connecting it to your computer using the Zune Desktop software for Windows or the Windows Phone 7 Connector for Mac.
The Venue Pro is nearly two years old and was among the first lineup for Windows Phone 7 handsets. So it is great to see that it is receiving the latest version of Windows Phone. This actually gives us hope that we may also see the Windows Phone 7.8 update arrive on the handset.
Anyone interested in this device or any other Windows Phone device should probably hold out for upcoming Samsung handsets this fall which will feature Windows Phone 8.
