Microsoft today announced that Windows Phone 7 mango has reached a major milestone: the code has been finalized and handed over to cell phone manufacturers. The release to manufacturer — or RTM — stage means that hardware companies such as HTC, LG, and Samsung, and network operators such as AT&T and Verizon Wireless can use the code to optimize their respective hardware and services before rolling them out later this year.
