If I want to develop for Windows Phone 7, what should I learn? XNA, Silverlight or other?
Microsoft has not yet announced what the development environment will be. They say they ll get more in-depth at MIX. If I were a betting man, I d guess you ll get XNA out of the box, followed by some light version of Silverlight.
EDIT
I d say it s no longer a guess that it will be Silverlight and XNA just based on the MIX sessions for Windows Phone.
