Edit: As the no-commenting-down-voter reminded me, these steps are no longer required as the installer now includes everything you need.

In addition to Rowland's answer, you'll need a few things installed in order to use Blend (for Silverlight animations):

Here are some other resources you might find useful:

Windows Phone Development on MSDN
Windows Phone Class Library Reference
Code Samples (not included with the SDK download; rather limited, but a good place to bookmark)

You can find the new released SDK at the Windows Phone for Developers homepage.

Click the "Download the Developer Tools" link on the right hand side.

It includes a specialized version of Visual Studio 2010 Express and a device emulator.

It hasn't been officially released as of yet. I heard it would be detailed at MIX.
