Visual Basic comes to Windows Phone!

Ah.. It’s such a relief to be able to finally talk about it I’ve been working on getting Visual Basic supported in the Windows Phone development tools. It’s been hard to not talk about it, especially when I’d seen comments from users like “The phone dev tools are great but it’s sad that there is no VB support”.. You can read about the announcement here on Soma’s blog. Jason Zander has a post showing a walkthrough of a basic VB windows phone application. The VB Team blog has a more detailed walkthrough. I’ll post about the details of the release later. Have fun developing VB apps for the phone!
