Jeff, this is by far the best introduction to the different WP7 mechanisms. Evar! Thank you so much, can't wait to get my hands dirty digging into the code.
Great stuff! Now, if only I could get ahold of one of those "Super API Keys" so my apps that utilize GPS in the background to track information desireable for my users will actually work : ) I've "appealed" everywhere I can think of except for blogs. So here we go!

First of all, thank you for all your examples, they have been a great help. I was wondering, do you have a sample of code to produce the listing like the people list, where the list is sorted alphabetically were you can click on the letter and it takes you to a screen that has all the letters so you can go directly to that letter in the list.
I have created an app using the Databound application template and I have a long list of items. I thought it would be nice to allow the customer to go directly to a point in that list.

Self-sacrifice enables us to sacrifice other people without blushing.
When a stupid man is doing something he is ashamed of, he always declares that it is his duty.
Better keep yourself clean and bright you are the window through which you must see the world.
Knowledge exists to be imparted.
I am an end-user, not a developer. Is there a simple app that I can buy to increase the font sizes in the Windows Phone SMS application? The font sizes are not friendly to folks who are past 40.
