Resources for Windows Phone 7 development

Question

Windows Phone 7 has been unveiled and MS have announced all details of the development chain at the Mix10 conference.

So this could be a good starting point/collection of online resources as they appear

EDIT: I've removed the speculation tag now that the covers are off

You can get the newly released Windows Phone 7 Series "SDK" from the Windows Phone Developer Home Page

Click the "Download the Developer Tools" on the right hand side to get the bits.

There's a ton of resources out there for Silverlight, and for the most part all of this applies to Silverlight for Windows Phone. My limited experience so far has been quite postive. I took a simple game I wrote for Silverlight and cut and pasted the XAML and code into a new Windows Phone application and pressed F5. It ran without modification, the only thing I couldn't get working was the sound.

If your interested I just posted the source code on my blog.

For XNA there's a lot of information at the XNA creators site.

The forums are pretty good too over here combined they cover most aspects of game and app design and publishing.

Worth a visit.
