HTC Surround set to receive NoDo update

There is quite the handful of Windows Phone 7-powered devices that have already received their first major update to NoDo, but do bear in mind that a bunch of smartphone owners out there have yet to see the light of day for the NoDo update on their respective handsets. AT&T seemed to have forgotten about the HTC Surround when it comes to this update, but word on the grapevine has it that the update will be out in mid-May – that is around a fortnight from now, albeit without any particular or specific date just yet. 

No idea on when we can expect NoDo on the HTC Surround, but at long last Microsoft has updated its page that lets users know just how the update approval and scheduling process has progressed so far, where the HTC Surround has been “upgraded” so to speak to “Scheduling” status.

This would mean the HTC is around 10 business days out from receiving its updates, at least according to Microsoft’s definition, clearly and comfortably placing it within the mid-May launch window. Bear in mind that not everyone who owns a HTC Surround lives in the US, so those who are living across the pond and beyond (such as Europe’s Deutsche Telekom and Australia’s Optus) too can look forward to NoDo arriving around the same time as AT&T users.
