Here is a little update for Windows Phone 7.8 release which is expected to happen this month. After Nokia Spain tweeted that the upgrade would be available in January, Nokia Italy took it further and confirmed that Windows Phone 7.8 was only a few days away.

Italian blog Plaffo reports that the Finnish company replied to a Lumia 900 owner asking about Windows Phone 7.8’s availability by saying that it would be released “in a few days.”

Nokia already pulled Windows Phone 7.8 from its firmware repository, also known as NaviFirm, so those who wish to upgrade via this method will not be able to do so anymore.

The reasons behind Nokia’s decision are unclear for the moment, but given the fact that the update will be live in just a few days, it doesn’t matter anymore. Stay tuned for more info on the subject.
