Scott Guthrie today announced a number of new features that will be available in Silverlight 3, available next year. In addition to the previously announced H.264 video support, there is a substantial surprise in that they have announced 3D and GPU hardware acceleration support. I hadn't expected this until after version 3.
He also announced richer data binding support which frankly could mean anything. Hopefully it means DependencyProperties and element binding work the same as in WPF.
He also includes in his post a screen shot of the new visual data binding editor that will be available in Visual Studio 2010. It will be interesting to see how this works in practice as most of the time my data context is set in code and I'm not sure how that will be reflected in the editor. If you want to see how this new visual data binding works, it was demonstrated in this session at PDC: http://channel9.msdn.com/pdc2008/PC45/.
