Michael Scherotter who made the first Ball Watch SL1 app back in the day, has a Virtual Event: Creating an Entry for the BALL Watch Silverlight Contest... sounds like the thing to do if you want in on this :)

Michael Klucher has a post up to give you some relief if you're having Trouble Installing the Windows Phone Developer Tools

Portuguese above and now French... Jeremy Alles has a post up about [WP7] Windows Phone 7 challenge for french readers !

Just a note, not that it makes any difference, but Adam Kinney turned @SilverlightNews over to me today. I am the only one that has ever posted on it, but still having it all to myself feels special :)

From SilverlightCream.com:

Silverlight 4 tutorial: HOW TO use PathListBox and Sample Data: Crank up that new version of Blend and follow along with Vibor Cipan's PathListBox tutorial ... oh, and sample data too.
Cool INotifyPropertyChanged implementation: Chris Klug shows off some INotifyPropertyChange goodness he is not implementing, and credits a blog by Manuel Felicio for some inspiration. Check out that post as well... I've tagged his blog... I needed *another* one :)
Silverlight Tip: Using LINQ to Select the Largest Available Webcam Resolution: With no Silverlight Tip of the Day today, Pete Brown stepped up with this tip for finding the largest available webcam resolution using LINQ ... and read the comment from Rene as well.
Creating a Master-Detail UI in Blend: Kirupa has a very nice Master/Detail UI post up with backrounder info and the code for the project. There's a running example in the post for you to get an idea what you're learning.
Get started with Farseer Physics 2.1.3 in Silverlight 3: Xianzhong Zhu has a Silverlight 3 tutorial up for Farseer Physics 2.1.3 ... might track for Silverlight 4, but hey, WP7 is kinda/sort Silverlight 3, right? ... lots of code and external links.
