Hi! Do you know about issues with Silverlight 5 Tools and Windows Phone 7.1 SDK? After I've installed Silverlight 5 developer runtime, I was unable to get designer working with my WP7 project. Also, some sites with silverlight contents was not rendered at all. Do you have feedback about this or the runtime released is know to be stable?
