Windows Phone Series 7 is finally here I was lucky enough to attend the Sydney Windows User Group in March 2010 to watch a presentation by Nicholas Rand on Windows Phone 7 series. As soon as I heard him say Zune and XNA my ears got excited. Development for Windows Phone 7 will be done in XNA and Silverlight.
I first looked at XNA code in November 2009, and attended the Image Cup Dev Camp at University of Wollongong in December 2009. Ever since then I have been looking for a project that students would be viable for students due to restricytions with sellign independent games in Australia. Finally I had a good reason for students to sink their teeth into XNA and play/learn windows phone 7 development.
