Building Cross-Platform Native Mobile Apps in C# using Xamarin 2.0

In this talk, Talbott Crowell will demonstrate how to build apps for Windows Phone, Android Phone, and iPhone using C# and sharing code across platforms. Xamarin 2.0 Business includes tools for integration with Microsoft Visual Studio, so developers can use the powerful capabilities Microsoft has built in their flagship Integrated Development Environment (IDE).

This talk will include demos, real code, and examples of using the MVVM (Model View ViewModel) design pattern to achieve code reuse, but still allow developers to harness the native richness of each mobile platform.

Talbott Crowell is Chief Software Architect at Third Millennium, Inc (ThirdM.com) and a Microsoft MVP (Most Valuable Professional). You can follow @Talbott on Twitter ( http://twitter.com/talbott ) which has a link to his Wordpress blog for more information on speaking events and sample code.
