Here’s an update on the much anticipated next version of Microsoft’s mobile operating system, Windows Mobile 7 aka Windows Phone 7.

There’s no definite confirmation yet if it will indeed be launched at MWC next week, but if it does make an appearance at the grand event in Barcelona, word is that it will just be a preview of its interface and not a full in-depth introduction. Furthermore, it’s now being reported that the entire interface has been overhauled and replaced with a Zune HD inspired UI based on a project codenamed “Metro.” Confirming what we previously reported about Windows Phone 7 ME, they latest round of rumors also mention that there’s both Xbox and Zune integration as well as social networking support.

Back on the 21st of January when Amazon announced that it would release its Kindle Development Kit, A/K/A KDK, we heard it would begin rolling out in limited beta this month, with a wait list of people getting access to the kit as space was available. Well, that moment has arrived, and you can now sign up to receive said KDK. Our tipster wasn’t able to get the software in hand yet, but we’ll keep on the lookout for it.

Spawn Labs’ Spawn HD-720 appliance is more than ready to ship, opening up a whole new way to play with the following consoles – the Xbox 360, Xbox, Playstation 3, Playstation 2 and Nintendo Gamecube, with your friends or to fly solo if that is your preference. That is not all, as you can also enjoy your gaming at home or on the road through a network-connected computer. Sounds too confusing? Let us simpify the process even further. When at home with someone watching the TV where the console is attached to, all you need to do is head to a different room and play the computer over the home network. Whenever you are traveling, just make sure you have a broadband Internet connection and you’re good to go. Either way, there is the option to capture video clips of a particular gaming session to show off on YouTube your string of combos in Tekken or other beat ‘em ups. The Spawn HD-720 retails for $199.95 while addditional external Spawn Gamepad Adapters are going for $39.95 each.

It’s not version 3.2, but there’s a little stopgap out now for iPhone and iPod touch owners in the form of OS 3.1.3. According to the changelog, we can expect better battery level reporting and fixes for problems with the Japanese Kana keyboard and some mysterious issues where third-party apps would fail to launch. Sounds good to us!

Update: As usual, we’re hearing blackra1n (and presumably redsn0w) has been busted by 3.1.3, so you probably want to hold back if you’re jailbroken until you’ve gotten the all-clear.
