I just posted an article on how to simulate 3D buttons on a Windows Phone Silverlight application.

I posted an article on making a Panoramic Silverlight Application on the Windows Phone using Visual Studio 2010.   It's a simple example on how to build the app and navigate between screens using touch flicks.

I got an official response from someone at Microsoft.  The Touch.FrameReported event WILL be available in the final release of Silverlight for Windows Phone 7.  It just didn't make it into the current technology preview.  I was also told that it did not make it into the next release of the CTP but it will be in the following one.  For those of us that are working on multi-touch apps, this will be great to have.  Windows Phone 7 is going to be fun.

I also wanted to say how impressed I am with Microsoft's response to my questions.  I sent an email to ScottGu on Sunday afternoon asking about Touch.FrameReported event.  Within an hour, he forwarded my email to the people who knew the answer and they responded in less than an hour.  It was fantastic response time on a Sunday afternoon.  I continue to be very impressed.  Keep up the good work. 

For those of us who have one of the HP tx2 tablets, we can already develop multi-touch apps for the Windows Phone 7 because the emulator supports multiple touch points.  However, I'm currently not able to get the Touch.FrameReported event to fire in a Silverlight app on the Windows Phone 7 emulator.  I'm hoping that it's just because this is the first rev of the emulator.  There are very few postings online that even talk about it.  I'm going to contact someone from Microsoft to get an official response on the subject.  I'll post the results as soon as I know more.
