Microsoft has released an updated version of its Marketplace for Mobile application for WinMo 6.0 and up recently that makes a few key changes — nothing that’s going to shake you to your very core the same way that Windows Phone 7 Series did last week, certainly, but there’s some good stuff in here nonetheless. Most importantly, Marketplace will now allow for app installs straight to memory cards, a critical capability for devices that don’t have gobs of storage built in (and something that Android tragically still lacks). We’ve also got deep links to app product pages, user-selectable regional stores, Russian support, and the list goes on, so it seems like a must-have upgrade for anyone on a 6.x device. Just don’t break the bank going on a wild, Red Bull-fueled app buying rampage now, alright?
