What's New In Silverlight 3

We’ll take a lap around the major feature areas of Silverlight 2 and 3, and showcase some of the new business app features announced at MIX09, as well as rich media and graphics capabilities. If you are new to Silverlight, or haven’t been working in Silverlight 3, you won’t want to miss this.

Silverlight 3 Adores My Commodore 64 

From the whirlwind Silverlight tour, well dive right into a couple of fun Silverlight 3 projects that showcase just how powerful the platform really is. Pete will walk us through his Commodore 64 Emulator as well as a software synthesizer, both written in C# on Silverlight 3. Joysticks optional.  :)
