ok this one isn't even close to Silverlight, but Colin Eberhardt is all over the place with his posts and I couldn't pass up posting about his HTML5-based WP7 app using PhoneGap, KnockoutJS, and JQuery... read why he did it and some comments he's received
WindowsPhoneGeek provides a very useful post with this discussion of using a VSM class to manage states and how to transition between them on the Hub Tiles... as usual, lots of good info and all the code.
John Papa has put out 9 of his "Papa's Perspective" posts... yikes, I've missed a few... the cool part is, he's got links to all of them on this post.... lots of good stuff all in easily-digested chunks
Jesse Liberty is discussing Fast Application Switching in this episode of his WP7 mini-series. As with part 1, this post has good external links to information about FAS
Derik Whittaker is still checking out WinRT/Metro... with this post on a common error while trying to coax your app into sharing data, and the simple solution.
Have a need for a MessageBox in your WP7 app? How about one customized through the use of XNA? Sumit Dutta has just that going in this Part 18 of his WP7 series
Asim Sajjad's latest is showing how to correctly display the number of records displayed in a data grid when the data being displayed is being filtered by user input.
Dhananjay Kumar has a video tutorial up on working with the WebBrowser Control in WP7... pretty straightforward explanation of that...
I talked yesterday about Charles Petzold's Phree book reader on WP7... well, during the month of November, he's planning on writing a book reader for Metro... this post is one leading into that... laying some footing so to speak... talking about async in Windows 8... good code examples and lots of discussion
Peter Kuhn has been up to some serious coolness with his WP7 skilz... he has a generic library on CodePlex called PAARC that allows you to build an app on your phone to remote control your pc, a desktop game, you come up with something... very nice, Peter
Ollie Riches has revisited his Tessellating shapes material for this part 2 wherein he is using an asynchronous pattern for creating the polygons.
Stay in the 'Light!
