Bad news for those of you with the LG Optimus 7 – the Korean company won’t release a Windows Phone 7.8 update for your smartphone, despite the fact that Microsoft promised to push updates without carrier interventions. It looks like handset makers are still included in the process and LG decided cramming this version to its existing smartphone is not worth the effort.
The information comes from the Polish website WP7.com.pl, which shows a letter from one of its readers who asked about the update. To make things worse, we’re not sure whether other LG Windows Phones (like Quantum) will also be abandoned. We do hope that folks leading the smartphone division at LG will do their best to properly serve its customers. We’ll let you know if we hear something new on this. Stay tuned…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
