Hi Folks,
I am looking into starting developing some apps for windows phone, I know that wp8 is around the corner, and it would be better if I just waited and develop for wp8 straight, but also apps developed for wp7 are going to be compatible and run fine on wp8, my questions is since wp7 app are Silverligh, and wp8 is WinRT (basically xaml and c#), is upgrading the app from wp7 to wp8 going to be a pain? I know Silverlight is a flavor of xaml as well, but to me it sounds like an effort to port Silverlight to WinRT.
