Yesterday Microsoft announces the much awaited WPF/E branding it as SilverLight. I had not heard some story behind this name still 
I checked it out and downloaded some sample applications, but its really disheartening to see what they have given as samples
Copied the concept of Flex book component which is having less functionality!!!
Definately I am not impressed by this, there is a growing community of Flex developers and we have really good ideas implemented. If you want to compete show us something new and original 
If anyone wants to look at it –>
I also wrote about the flexbook example and SilverLight, check it out …. http://weblog.mrinalwadhwa.com/2007/04/17/microsoft-silverlight-aka-wpfe-for-rias-i-dont-think-so/
And as for the name … someone on some blog pointed out its like they put Flash in some bad thesaurus and came up with it. ….. a silver light is a flash .. oh wait SilverLight is not Flash …. Ha Ha.
