Has anyone implemented Tap & Hold in a Windows Phone 7 App yet? I can see a couple of possible approaches KeyDown/KeyUp and a timer or ManipulationStarted/manipulationCompleted and a timer.
However it strikes me that this is a less than idea approach because different apps would have different timer settings leading to inconsistency.
Am I missing something? I was hoping for a TapAndHold event

I'm in the same situation, and I'm looking for "the recommended way". In the meantime, Mike Francis posted a solution on his blog, using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Input.TouchPanel's gesture recognition within a Silverlight app. I didn't try it.

Thanks for the link, that was pretty much the solution I was contemplating. I wonder if this is something missing from the beta?
