Background
The "bleeding edge" Windows Store app was created specifically for "Power" Ultrabook scenarios to meet the constant demands of Windows Phone users for a great Windows 8 Store version of the app, and has gone to great lengths to "stretch the limits" of the platform and toolsets.
Points of Interest
"Porting" Windows Phone apps to the Windows Store should NOT be done as suggested (by updating existing code and designs) but should be created new, leveraging exisiting concepts and class structures only.
