Silverlight and the VS 2010 Tools for Windows
Phone (and the corresponding Expression Blend Tools for
Windows Phone) make building Windows Phone applications both really
easy and fun.
At MIX this week a number of great partners (including
Netflix, FourSquare, Seesmic, Shazaam, Major League Soccer, Graphic.ly, Associated
Press, Jackson Fish and more) showed off some killer application prototypes
they’ve built over the last few weeks. You can watch my full
day 1 keynote to see them in action. I think they start to show some of the
promise and potential of using Silverlight with Windows Phone 7. I’ll be
doing more blog posts in the weeks and months ahead that cover that more.
Hope this helps,
Scott
