Update: Entry for this contest has now closed and the winner will be announced here shortly!
Recently I have been using the fantastic RadControls for Windows Phone 7 by Telerik in my work on Windows Phone 7 applications. The toolkit has been built from the ground up to provide controls and capabilities that are not currently available as part of the OOTB Windows Phone tookit.
There are some great components to this collection, including the RadDataBoundListBox which according to Telerik is “ the fastest version of the standard ListBox component”, which is a massive help when considering performance within your applications. Having seen this control in action, I can honestlty say that it lives up to Telerik’s claims. Other components include an Animation Framework, WrapPanel, DockPanel, Gauges and several other implementations of the ListBox. For more information about the controls visit the Telerk RadControls for Windows Phone 7 page.
This really is a great product and now you have a chance to win a copy for yourself . To enter just do the following (a quick thank you here to Michael Crump for starting his competitions as this prompted me to do this contest! Check out his blog if you haven’t already…it’s great!);

I –need– @Telerik Windows Phone 7 @RadControls before I wrinkle up and die of old age using @Blend to template and code all of the functionality @Telerik Windows Phone 7 @RadControls provides.
That’s why…

I also love Telerik controls, but they are expensive for a non-business.

The controls look great, though they are priced a bit high for a casual developer like me so put me down for the competition!
