Excerpt:
Today at the Silverlight FireStarter event we unveiled the next release of Silverlight.
Silverlight 5 adds significant new features and capabilities, and enables developers to create premium media experiences and deliver rich applications across browsers, desktops and devices. In my keynote this morning we demonstrated a number of them, and highlighted both the developer productivity Silverlight 5 provides and the great new user experiences it enables.
A Silverlight 5 beta will be available in the first half of next year, and the final release will ship in the second half of 2011.
