Windows Phone 7 has yet to be released but that doesn’t mean you can’t start developing the app that will take over the world.
Windows Phone 7 is the next upcoming version of the Windows Mobile operating system developed by Microsoft, which plans to release it by October 2010.[2][3][4][5] Microsoft’s goal is to create a great and predictable user experience by redesigning the user interface, disallowing partners to modify or replace it, integrating the operating system with other services, and strictly controlling the hardware it runs on.[6] Microsoft officially unveiled Windows Phone 7 during Mobile World Congress 2010 (February 15)[7] in Barcelona and revealed additional details at MIX 2010.
