Microsoft officials wouldn;t say a month back regardless of whether the actual Silverlight three bits would be readily available by the day of the official launch,
Office 2010 Professional Plus Key, which is July ten. But it turns out they are out there each day previously.Those interested in the newest edition of Microsoft;s Flash competitor can download it from Microsoft;s Web web page. Right here;s exactly where to obtain the Silverlight three bits.(Gotta adore the notice on the download web page: “Don’t Worry,
Microsoft Office 2010 Professional! We won’t install a bunch of additional stuff on your computer or try to sign you up for unwanted email.” Wonder who they;re talking about?)Silverlight three includes a number of new features and updates. (Program Manager Tim Heuer has a pretty exahustive list of them.) I;m curious to see what developers do with Silverlight 3;s offline/outside the browser capabilities.What are the SL3 features and capabilities you;re interested in?Update: The Expression Blend 3 + SketchFlow Release Candidate test build (not final) are also on the market for download now. Demonstrated at Mix ‘09 previously this year,
Windows 7 Home Premium, this is a “visual tool for designing and prototyping desktop and web applications.” (Thanks to Softie Steve Clayton for the pointer.)Update 2 (July ten): ArsTechnica has a list of all the Silverlight and Expression packaging and pricing options.
