The latest Windows Phone Dev Podcast just teased some major new features expected to launch with Mango and trust us when we say they're awesome. The long-anticipated (and predicted) turn-by-turn navigation is among the new additions in the Fall update. The podcast also confirmed two very cool new Bing-powered features: Bing Audio, which is a music recognition service similar to Shazam, and Bing Vision, which is a visual search tool not unlike Google Goggles.
Watson also divulged information about Microsoft's TellMe-powered Voice to Text feature coming in Mango that will compose new texts via microphone, and talked up their new podcast integration. Windows Phone Dev Podcast also got their hands on screenshots of the new features (we've embedded the new Bing Audio screens above) and more so visit the source link for more pictures and to listen to Brandon Watson discuss the features.
(Ed. note: I cleared up the misinformation in the article. It was my belief Brandon Watson of Microsoft confirmed this info but that was not the case.)
Update: When it rains it pours! A Chinese site, Cnblogs.com, was the origin of the info before being taken down but LiveSide.net managed to grab the info before that. It looks like Windows Live Messenger is finally being integrated into the People Hub, Bing is getting Image search, screenshots of an improved SkyDrive sync with Office were revealed, and East Asian character support is being implemented.
