This session is designed to provide a developer overview of how to build games for Windows Phone 7 with Microsoft's Visual Studio Express 2010 for Windows Phone.

This session will also cover the programming model, how to work with content, game input, and available resources.  You'll also get to see a hands on demonstration of the Windows Phone 7 Prototype device.

There will be 2 tracks of multiple speakers on Saturday, the 18th.  There will be some IT Pro talks and more software development talks.  Feel free to attend which ever track is interesting to you.
