Microsoft released the Developer Tools for Windows Phone recently.  With the recently available download you get XNA Game Studio 4.0, Visual Studio 2010 Express (for Windows Phone) and Silverlight (for Windows Phone) and the Windows Phone Emulator.   What this means is programmers now have a great opportunity to start working on some incredible (we hope) applications for the upcoming Windows Phone release.
