Silverlight and Nokia team up
With Mix08 right around the corner, Silverlight is in the news. This morning Nokia and Microsoft are announcing support for Silverlight in S60 on Symbian. That’s great news for mobile phone and Nokia Internet Tablet users. It also breathes a little more life into Silverlight, which needs it.
If Silverlight is going to grow where the markets are growing–online and mobile–it needs to be supported in more browsers, OSes and devices. This is one more step.
In other Silverlight news, CNet is reporting that Silverlight will eventually support offline scenarios. Makes sense, although broad deployments are probably more important at this time.
What other Silverlight news might we hear today? More Silverlight dev support? More about Silverlight 2? Looking forward to Mix08. The keynotes will be streamed live tomorrow starting at 9:30 AM Pacific time.
