You can now use Visual Basic on Windows Phone 7 to do XNA development?

Visual Basic can now be used to develop on the Windows Phone 7!  I wonder if Alfred Thompson knows about this?  I checked Alfred’s excellent blog and I don’t see this.  Yippee! I beat him to the punch!

Take a look at the Word document at:

For lovers of Visual Basic, this is a great day! 

This is good news.

  Good Job Alfred, you one quick guy.  I was doing an Unleashed event with 60 Cal Poly Pomona MISSA students and Alice Pang.  This is definitely exciting. I hope that everyone takes a look at the Code. :)
