Apps, Games and Marketplace on Windows Phone 7

The web is abuzz with news, photos and demos about the Windows Phone 7 Series as Microsoft recently unveiled developer tools for its upcoming mobile OS at MIX10.

At MIX10, the main focus of Microsoft was to demo apps for the Windows Phone 7 Series platform and give developers an insight into what amazing things could be done by only using the tools available for the platform. Foursquare, Shazam, Seesmic were only some of the apps demoed, built on the Silverlight technology.

Apart from that, Microsoft also gave a demo of the Associated Press app, along with 3D-Games and the Apps Marketplace on the Windows Phone 7 Series. Check out the videos below.

It looks like Microsoft has developed a rock-solid platform that is easy for developers to build their apps on, and provides a new user-experience to the consumers. Though it's hard to tell how this platform will compete against other mobile OS such as iPhone and Android but one thing we are certain about is that the Windows Phone 7 Series platform will help Microsoft win back it's place in the mobile market soon enough.
