Windows Phone 7 App?
I am learning c# for silverligt, but it seems like a big project for a beginner.
Definitely doable. Not hard. As long as you have the REST API.
I m a Wp7 developper and I'd like build the wp7 game but I'm not sure that chess.com would appreciate that somebody make buisness with www.chess.com datas.

Maybe an admin could speak with you about cooperating on the venture? I'd think exposing chess.com to a wider audience on a broader base of platforms would be good for everybody.
I too would love a Windows Phone app. Please release one. I am playing Chess by Post for the time being, but to play with my friends, I need Chess.com. C'mon, I know you guys can do it!
^ Me too!!! C'mon, I know it's a smaller market, but it's a nice platform and very easy to code for.
There is a "rough beta" available - but only for the very tech savvy at the moment.

Don't give up hope... :)
Do you know something? Do share! I want this app so bad in time for the Nokia Lumia 900 which is an awsome phone.
I have seen the beta installed by a colleague of me. He has a developer phone and therefore was able to install it. It is still very rough. The graphics are not nice: a blue screen with a small board in top left corner, and you cannot flip the board. There is only minimal support for online chess. It's not something to share yet in another way then as this beta I believe. I was hoping to hear some more information on progress/plan.
I just uploaded the beta of NPChess, which is a Windows Phone 7 client application that works with Chess.com.
