Are you interested in Windows Phone 7 Development? Are you keen to get ahead of the competition to create apps for the Windows Phone 7?

Windows Phone 7 is a fresh exciting mobility platform and potentially a land of opportunity for killer apps! These “Free of Charge” workshops are designed to take your skills to the next level beyond the online training kits and helps you explore some more complex scenarios.
