Hi all,

I've written a WCF service that uses nettcp for callbacks to the client. I'm now looking at writing a phone client, but am having trouble finding the best way to achieve callback style functionality to the phone, using the same service. Can anyone help or point me in the right direction?

I've tried pollingDuplexHttpBinding, but I get Silverlight 3 compatibility errors in VS when I "update the Service Reference".

Regards,

Jib
