From SilverlightCream.com:
- Property Finder – the first HTML5-based Windows Phone 7 Application
- 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
- How to Programmatically Switch between the HubTile Visual States
- 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.
- JavaScript, MVVM and Silverlight - Papa's Perspective
- 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
- Migrating From WP7 to Mango–Fast Application Switching
- 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

- Asynchronous Processing in Windows 8
- 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
- Announcing: Phone as a Remote Control
- 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
