Mobile Pac-Man Update On Coding4Fun

I updated the Mobile Pac-Man code and wrote an article about it for Coding4Fun.  Along with the article, I provided links to the full source code and a new release build.  The most noticable change speeds up the time it takes to start a new game.  The splash screen now displays "Loading..." while some data is crunched and cached.  After this one-time load, starting new games is faster.  I also added and About screen.  Every app needs one, right?

Here is a direct link to the article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/coding4fun/gamedevelopment/pacman/default.aspx

I get an error every time I attempt to run the app on my MPx 220 (either when debugging from the IDE or if I create a Release build and copy the files over manually). It says it can't load the form. It works on my PC in the emulator, however. Has anyone else encountered this?
