Well Microsoft officially announced it’s Mobile 7 platform last week and it has generated a lot of buzz. You can find out more about it at http://www.windowsphone7series.com/.
Shortly after that, MIX announced that there will be a dedicated Mobile app/game track. You can watch an interview with Charlie Kindel on the Countdown to MIX here : http://channel9.msdn.com/posts/LarryLarsen/Countdown-to-MIX10-Charlie-Kindel-and-Windows-Phone-7-Series/

Remember if you can?t make it to MIX, the MIX team is incredible about posting the sessions on the MIX Website. If you do plan to make it out to MIX, I hope to see you there.

Come out and join me at the North Houston .NET Users Group (http://nhdnug.org) this Thursday (Feb 18th). The pizza and networking will start around 6pm. Mark Gordon, one of our group’s board members, will be presenting at 7pm.
Please check the NHDNUG website for location. Here is the information about this month?s talk:
| Title: |
Dot Net Collections: Tips and Tricks |
| Description: |
If the you tend to always use List<Whatever> for your collections and nothing else, then this talk may be for you. We will cover design and performance considerations when using collections and review the classes that support collections in .NET. While LINQ is not the primary focus of this discussion, we will cover the design patterns of LINQ that you can use in your code. |
| Bio: |
Mark has been leading software teams at Hewlett-Packard for 15 years, using .NET for 7 years. While at HP, he has primarily worked on customer support applications: client and server. If you have ever used Windows Help and Support on a HP computer, you may have used one of his applications. |
