This looks like a week of major releases! With the release of IE 9 Beta still fresh, Microsoft recently released the Windows Phone Developer Tools RTW. The WP7 Developer Tools allow you create .NET applications for the Windows Phone 7 platform using the Silverlight. I am really excited since these Tools hit the RTM.

This release contains the following:

• Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone
• Windows Phone Emulator Resources
• Silverlight 4 Tools For Visual Studio
• XNA Game Studio 4.0
• Microsoft Expression Blend for Windows Phone
