Unless of course, they decide to release it alongside Windows Phone 8 Apollo which is expected later this year. We don’t have any solid release date for WhatsApp’s return to the Windows Phone Marketplace, but it should be in days / weeks instead of months. This would usually be considered as the app’s release date, but as WindowsPhoneDaily notes, this is the same date that was shown in screenshots from WhatsApp for Windows Phone 7.5, so – besides it being more than three months from today – it would be unreasonable to call this WhatsApp 2.0’s release date.
