Windows Phone now fully supported by PhoneGap

If you are a mobile application developer, chances are you have heard of PhoneGap. If not, PhoneGap is the only open sourced mobile framework that supports 7 different platforms. In a nutshell, it makes coding your application on all of the major mobile platforms a much simpler process.

If you have been using PhoneGap and have been waiting for it to fully support Windows Phone, today is your lucky day as version 1.3 has rolled out, via Port 25. This is good news not only for developers but also users of Windows Phone as it is now easier for developers to push applications to that platform.
