Available now:

Hoping to have http://FromTheMalverns.com/Spot changes up soon.

Awesome,though sounds a bit to good to be true. Apparently a free updated 'Development Zune' for attendees as well?
Would someone at Mix please check out http://FromTheMalverns.com/SPOT & let me know what happens (click on the Windows Logo Button to remove the dummy phone surround).
Thanks.
Ian2 said:OK, latest version is up with a WP7 skin.
Havn't found any suitable sounds to use yet. Does anyone have any ideas?
OK, Sounds now included (pop and tada). Just need to add the scorechart at the end and it is complete (at least the design!)
Looking forward to MIX announcements tomorrow!
Check out the phone app here (you will need multitouch):

I will be with you in spirit only this year.
What is the correct way to play a short sound file, perhaps for a user click or touch in Silverlight? After registering the sound as a resource I (and I've noticed others) are doing this in order to get a result:
MyClickSound.Stop();
MyClickSOund.Play();
That feels wrong?
Bas said:For Michael Klucher and Shawn Hargreaves (or maybe Scott Gu, but I'm guessing this should go to the XNA guys): the development story for WP7S seems to be XNA and Silverlight. Suppose I want to use Silverlight as a graphics engine for my XNA games, for instance because I want to create a game that uses the Bing Maps Silverlight control, or because I want to be able to bring my game not just to phones but to everywhere that runs Silverlight. What are the possibilities in this regard? Is it either XNA or Silverlight, or will there be some sort of way to use the two together? There's currently a 3rd party library that lets you run your sprite based XNA game on Silverlight, but with XNA and Silverlight being the primary development platforms on WP7S, will there be anything from Microsoft itself to adress this?
For Scott Gu.

PS I have cross posted this in tech off.
For Charlie Kindel (probably):
Can Silverlight Apps developed with WP7 in mind be submitted to the Marketplace as an alternative to hosting them on the web?

I like that I can see all the headlines on one screen without scrolling. Not possible on my.msn.com. Booo!!!
Looks like iGoogle might be the best alternative - no OPML import though. Maybe something Silverlight is coming with MIX?
