Jesse Liberty has stated a series of tutorials for iPhone developers that focus on the minimum you need to know to add Windows Phone 7 development to your skill set.

The series begins with iPhone to Windows Phone 7 Tutorial – #0.

In the first tutorial, Jesse addresses:

• Phone performance
• Games on Silverlight
• MVC & MVVM
• Objective C & C#
• Coding for two platforms

Jesse promises a tutorial (nearly) every week for the next six months or so that goes into all aspects of Phone development, specifically for iPhone developers.
