The Windows Phone 7 API is (more or less) a subset of Silverlight, and they share the same tools viz Expression Blend, XAML. From what I've read here on HN, it seems like there has been something of an exodus of key people from the Silverlight/WPF teams to other projects or companies.
That's all. Maybe I'm way off base.
