I am writing this from the Windows Phone 7 (WP7) Boot Camp in Montreal. We are having a blast here. I was familiar with Silverlight so the first section is not new to me but Colin is not just showing how to use Silverlight with WP7. He covers very well other important topics like LINQ, WCF, Entity Framework, WCF Data services and OData. Colin prepared over 40 projects of sample code. Most are focused examples of individual build blocks so it very easy to understand. The Boot Camp concept is a training of 3 days condensed into 2 and is meant to be presented to a small group. In day 2 we are covering specifics of WP7 like GPS, Maps API and all the other goodies. This was very fun. Still 3 more locations left for this Boot Camp. The next one is Vancouver on August 30-31st then it will be presented on Ottawa on September 2 – 3rd and the last one is in Toronto on September 6-7th.
