The Windows Phone 7 SDK was released earlier today. There are a few things that have changed from the Beta to the RTM, a few of which caught my attention. If you want to see the change list you cah find it here.
- There's a limit of 10 side-loaded applications that can be on a retail device
- Changes have been made to the picture sharing API
- Character support encoding has been limited to 4 encodings (utf-9, utf-16, utf-16LE, utf-16BE, ISO-8859-1)
- XNA Framework strong name has changed
- Manifest Validation is now turned on
The first item was of interest to me. I've got well over 10 side-loaded applications on my device (some of which or trivial "Hello World" type applications).
