In Pictures: Windows Phone 8 - killer new features in Microsoft's latest mobile OS

Hot on the heels of its Surface reveal, Microsoft has demonstrated some of the new features coming in Windows Phone 8.

In-App Purchases

Windows Phone 8 will support in-app purchases, allowing you to buy additional content without having to exit the application.

Such content can include items like extra money in games, or more substantial items like magazines and newspapers. And since in-app purchases work with the Wallet hub, you'll be able to use payment apps (like the aforementioned Chase app) to pay for your purchases.
