Last post before I take a week off, Niall Ginsbourg has a sneak peak of his byRemote remote scheduling application running on Windows Phone 7. This is one of the apps I was looking forward to seeing running on Windows 7 and judging by the screenshots its looking great. Niall has it running in the emulator at the moment and is hopeing to get it in to the Windows Phone marketplace.  This is one of the great things about Windows Phone 7 is that developers that work with Microsoft .net framework can easily port their apps to Windows Phone 7 as the platform is based on Silverlight. I ported over the TDL Podcast player on the site to Windows Phone in a couple of hours. Read the rest of Niall’s posts for all the details.

Similarly to the byRemote Silverlight 4 client for Desktops – all metadata displayed is downloaded as compressed/raw data from the byRemote server on your 7MC machine (so it uses a very tiny amount of bandwidth – and caches stuff as needed) – and then the client app then works it’s magic on the uncompressed metadata once it hits the phone.  (so this is not just a browser app like the existing XHTML/IUI clients currently available in byRemote beta).
