Windows Phone developers should be happy to learn that the new Silverlight Toolkit for Mango has just been released by Microsoft. It contains tons of improvements over the previous version and is still open source. The toolkit has also been localized to support all the new languages supported by Mango along with new Mango specific controls like the HubTile and a totally rebuild LongList Selector that takes advantage of the OS’s smooth scrolling and off-thread image loading capability.
You can download the Silverlight for Windows Phone toolkit directly from here.
