We have just published refreshed bits of the Blend Add-In for Windows Phone and the Blend SDK for WIndows Phone. You can now use these bits with the Blend 4 RC build and the VS2010 RTM bits. Of course you also need the latest version of the phone development tools too.
Download links:
- Blend 4 RC (Note: we recently updated the Blend 4 RC bits. You must have the updated bits for the phone add-in to work. If you already have Blend 4 RC installed, you can check if you have the right bits by looking at the version number in Help -> About. The version must be 4.0.20421.0)
- Add-in for Windows Phone
- Blend SDK for WIndows Phone
- Windows Phone developer tools
Happy designing and developing

Some posts will be dedicated to it, especially because developers tend to overlook it and more generally several of its features are not very well-known.
