I have Visual Studio 2008. Do i develop software for Windows phone 7 with Visual Studio 2008?
Thanks,

A:
You don't. You download the Windows Phone 7 SDK instead. That will work independently of VS2010, or if you have VS2010 installed as well, it will become another set of project types.

But not yet, the current download only works with VS2010 RC, not with the final release. Read carefully.

@Henk: Yes, that's true - and indeed why I'm holding off installing the RTM for the moment. Hopefully it won't be long before they come out with a compatible sdk though.

Next month (May) is when Microsoft are making some more announcements about Windows Phone 7 and also rumoured to be releasing an update to the tools for the Release version of VS2010, which they have already implied this month that they are doing this.
