So many bloggers and normal everyday users of Windows Phone 8 have been graving something as simple as screen shot feature for Windows Phone since the start.

No worries as while developers can now on WP8 create screen shot applications, Microsoft has done the right thing and made the feature native. Screen shots at least on the leaked WP8 SDK will be taken hitting camera and home button.

    IIRC it wasn’t even possible for 3rd-party apps to add this functionality in WP7.5.
    So it’s nice to see it’ll as least be baked in from the outset this time…

      Yes you are right, there was never API’s for that functionality so nobody could write app for it. 
      There where homebrew apps that made it possible, though getting totally unlocked Windows Phone is easier said than done.
