This session covers how to instantiate the application bar, the Application Chrome, System Tray and the Application Bar in XAML. It concludes with a demo using Microsoft Expression Blend for enabling the application bar and including application icons and menu items.
The Windows Phone 7 Jump Start video training is for all developers interested in developing applications or games for the new Windows Phone 7 Platform. The ~14 ½ hour course is based on the Microsoft Windows Phone 7 Developer Training Kit and taught by Microsoft MVP's and Microsoft Press Authors, Andy Wigley and Rob S. Miles. The Designing for Windows Phone 7 session is taught my Microsoft Design experts, Jon Harris and Bryan Agnetta. The training is wrapped up with an audio podcast with a panel of Microsoft experts answering the questions posed throughout the training.
Watch these entertaining sessions and complete the labs found on Channel 9 (http://channel9.msdn.com/learn/courses/WP7TrainingKit/) to gain development skills using both Microsoft XNA and Microsoft Silverlight.
For copies of the student files and links to demo code, you can go to the Windows Phone 7 Born To Learn Forum (http://borntolearn.mslearn.net/wp7/m/default.aspx).

Using the Silverlight Gameloop in the video, how would you suggest pausing a game from app.xaml when the Rootframe.obscured event fires?
Where can I find session 10 demo files? The links on SkyDrive seem to be missing it or showing a different session even though I'm clickon 10-12.
Hallo,
yes I would say thank you for these cool video tutorials. These videos are perfectly to give the us beginners a good overview of the possibilities from the new windows phone.
Came from Flash/Flex/AIR Plattform, but I like the .Net possibillities more and more... Hope that the new mobile phone will be a big success!
bye

Thanks for these videos. I came across this video on this site: http://create.msdn.com/en-US/education/catalog/article/wp7_jump_start, and it has icorrect title for this session (it says its about Game developement, but its about app bar :)).
Cool videos, but the linking between them is a total mess. This is where I ended when I clicked "Session 4: Building Games for the Windows Phone 7 Platform". So where has that one gone ?
