I meant to say "when the Designed-for-Mango phones come out" - the newer WP phones have front-facing cameras, higher-resolution grid pixel displays, and more sensors.

Emphasis mine above.

Care to cite a source?

Remember how when WP7 was announced Microsoft said they would support 240x320 screen-sizes for phones in "emerging markets" - is that still the case?

See above... and I'm looking for specific and credible sources... doubly so recent.

I'm not aware of any specifically "low-cost" WP7 phones, so if Microsoft does make any why would manufacturers opt for 240x320 screens when the 480x640 ones are cheap anyway?

Oh my head hurts.

If you are going to try to quote rumors and speculation... you could at least get it right (or recent)... the claim was for a 480x320 display... or say others 320x480... why on earth would an OEM go for a VGA display on a device clearly optimized for a widescreen?
