Evernote released a major update to the popular note taking app for Windows Phone today. The new 2.1 version brings full support for Windows Phone 7.5 (Mango) and really makes this the must-have note taking app for the platform.
The biggest new feature is the ability to pin just about anything in Evernote to the Start screen. Now you can pin folders in Evernote where you have stored notes including things like voice notes. If you have a grocery list for example, you can pin that to your Start Menu.
