Windows Phone 7
I recently got the newly released Windows Phone 7 (the Samsung Focus). So far, I love it! This is my first smart-phone. It’s nice to join the 21st century.
I’m also poking around with how to write apps for it. It was easy to download C# Express and WP7 tools and get started with the emulator.
- I started with ScottGu’s blog announcing the release of WP7 Dev tools. You can download the tools here.
- I did the “My first WP7 app” tutorial, which shows hosting a web browser control. It worked flawlessly in the emulator.
- I also looked at Scott’s blog on writing a Twitter app.
- This is a nice MSDN summary of basic tasks.
WP7 user apps are written in WPF (or XNA). I never really needed WPF when writing debugging stacks, so I’m feeling the pain from the learning curve here.

Hi Mike, Sorry to post an irrelevant comment here. I actually wanted to post about your RTF to HTML converter, which you posted here: blogs.msdn.com/.../rtf_5F00_html.aspx but that is now closed to comments! I'm trying to use your code, but it's crashing all over the place - has the RTF spec changed in the interim, since you wrote this code? I'm testing on a simple "Hello World" file I wrote using the Windows 7 version of WordPad, and the converter can't deal with it. If you'll reply directly to me (sbehr.at.sabreton.com) I'll give you more details. Thanks!
