  • Quick peep of live Silverlight sites.
  • 1.5 million installations of Silverlight per day, should accelerate with SL2
  • SL2 Beta 1 available today
  • Silverlight 2.0 now runs on mobile devices.
  • Bandwidth can be an issue --> adaptive streaming added to SL2. Switch between bitrates automatically as CPU and bandwidth change. No need to write any code for that, SL takes care of it dynamically.
