This book offers everything you'll need to upgrade your existing
programming knowledge and begin to develop applications for the
Windows Phone. It focuses on the 75 percent of the material that
you will need 95 percent of the time. We're not going to teach you
object-oriented programming (OOP) all over again, but we are going
to take the time to point out how .NET and C# differ in their
execution of the standard OOP concepts from other languages'
implementations in order to make your migration as smooth and
stress-free as possible. Migrating to Windows Phone will lead you
through a tour of the key features of developing for Microsoft's
devices. We'll consider everything from data handling to
accelerometers, from mapping to WCF. We'll also walk you through
monetizing your application through Microsoft's online Windows
Phone store.What you'll learn * To get your phone, IDE and other
tools set up in an efficient manner * The controls that are
available to you in Windows Phone programming and how they can be
applied * To apply concepts of a non-trivial demo application to
your own application context * To point out the key elements of
both the phone and the Visual Studio IDE * The principles of push

monetize your applications through advertising, the Windows Phone
Marketplace, and other channels Who this book is for This book is
for anyone seeking to develop applications for the Windows Phone.
No prior Silverlight or C# knowledge is required, although an
understanding of programming in general, and object-oriented
programming in particular, is assumed. Notes are used liberally to
highlight features and concepts that might be confusing to
programmers unfamiliar with .NET and C#.Table of Contents * Get Set
