Yes! All ready to go.

Basically we have two competition categories: A Trade Me application or a "Free Style" one.

For the Trade Me application, I've recorded a video explaining the basics of building a Windows Phone 7 app for Trade Me.

  Thats for the code was really awesome.  The only think I can't get to work is placing a bid requst "developer.trademe.co.nz/.../".  Your post method always returns a "internal server error (500) from Trademe, however using other protected methods such as WatchList.xml work fine.  Any chance of having a look :) Thanks heaps
