How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- High Quality WMV (PC, Xbox, MCE)
- MP3 (Audio only)
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- High Quality MP4 (iPad, PC)
- MP4 (iPod, Zune HD)
- Mid Quality MP4 (WP7, HTML5)
PhoneGap is an HTML5 and JavaScript framework that allows to build cross-platform mobile applications very easily.
Since version 1.3, PhoneGap fully supports Windows Phone and integrates into Visual Studio 2010.
For developers who are already using PhoneGap to target multiple mobile platforms, they can now also target Windows Phone 7.5.
In this demo you will see how to simply create a PhoneGap application in Visual Studio that uses Windows Phone features such as the image search or the camera.
The exact same code is then used to deploy an Android application in Eclipse.

Are you able to say yet if PhoneGap apps created now will work with the next version of Windows Phone?
@Ian2: the short answer to your question is no, this is not something that I am able to tell you today as there is very little that is public about the next version of Windows Phone as of today. However, considering the popularity of PhoneGap and the fact that this is a community open source framework, you should expect it to support future popular mobile platforms once they are out there.
