Silverlight 3 Released & Expression info

Although I’ve been slow in putting out part two of the Silverlight month, Silverlight has still progressed. Silverlight 3 was released a fortnight ago.

This release of Silverlight includes more HD video support (H.264/MP4), better streaming, 3D support (GPU accelerated!), Out-of-browser support and more.

The Silverlight 3 Tools for VS2008 have been released too.

Expression Studio 3 will also be released within 30 days of Silverlight 3’s release (so roughly two weeks from today), while the release candidate for Expression Blend 3 and SketchFlow have been released. Expression Studio 3 will be released free to students via Dreamspark – yay!
