Can we start developing apps for the upcoming windows mobile 7. Are developer tools available? Do we have to buy the visual studio program for this?

回答1:

The first link is to download the windows phone development tools, which also include Visual Studio 2010 Express and the second is for information on developing for windows phone.

EDIT I have changed the links to link to the windows phone beta developer tools.

The blog titled 'A Developer’s Roadmap to Windows Phone 7 Launch Timing' from the Official Windows Phone Developer Blog provides some great information. If you are a student, you can develop and deploy applications to the Window Phone Marketplace for free via www.dreamspark.com. It is a Microsoft Student Program initiative.

Express version of Visual Studio is free: Visual Studio 2010 Express

回答5:

One thing to note is that you should use Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone 7 rather than the Visual Studio 2010 add-in. There are problems with the add-in, not the least of which is that the option to add a service reference to a Windows Phone Application project is conspicuously missing.

http://developer.windowsphone.com is a good place to get started.

The last update to the CTP was in April. Expect some things to change before RTM still.

Windows Phone 7 Mango RC has also been released. You can start developing apps on this. If you have an account in the Windows Phone developer community App Hub, you will get an update for Mango on your email registered in App Hub account.
