If you have been following Brandon Watsons blog at http://www.manyniches.com I am sure you have come across his posts about Windows Phone 7 Device requests.

In a follow up post, he stated that distribution will be through the Evangelists in the field.
“but there’s a whole team of evangelists who will be getting the phones to developers.” ( http://bit.ly/dwnovQ )
Guess what? That’s me!! Well, one of them anyway. To be clear, I only have a few right now so I want to make sure that as many people as possible are able to test their WP7 App on a real device. I may have more in the next few weeks but we will see. By the way, for those that do not know, I am a Developer Evangelist in Southern California, so you must be in this area. But don’t worry, I can help point you to your local developer evangelist that may be able to help.
So, if you want to test your app on a device contact me at any of the following :
Daniel (dot) Egan (at) Microsoft (dot) com
@DanielEgan on Twitter
or leave a comment here on how I can contact you.
Once you do, I will send you an email with more info.
Happy Coding!!
