UPDATED:HTC Updates Sound Enhancer, Photo Enhancer & Stocks (First Mango Apps?)

Yesterday I received updates for 3 applications on the HTC hub – Sound Enhancer, Photo Enhancer & Stocks. I updated each and continued to look around for any changes. To my surprise I didn’t see anything new about any of them except for quite possibly a very small speed boost. What I did find strange though was when I multi tasked away from the apps on my Mango device and then back. The apps didn’t react like every other app out there right now when you multitask. There was absolutely no loading whatsoever, it just went in the application like it was baked into the OS.

Are these 3 apps the first Windows Phone apps updated for Mango? I know submission for Mango powered apps takes place next week but this is HTC and I find it very strange that there is no loading for any of the 3 apps updated but all the other HTC applications still load when you switch to them.

What do you guys think? Am I just being paranoid? Have I been drinking too much of that Mango juice?

UPDATE: I had someone who wasn’t running Mango check their version of the Photo Enhancer and they were running v1.3 while I am running v1.4. Looks like this really is our first glimpse of Mango applications.
