While building my <a href="http://blog.yuvisense.net/2007/05/03/silverlight-pong-clone-and-silverlight-flash-killer/" rel="nofollow">simple Silverlight Pong Game</a>, (a very simple one), the docs were not present at all(Object Browser was the only documentation!) and there are a lot of things half-baked(The Timer class has already been marked obsolete with the reason that it was too 'unreliable') But still, it's coool, because I couldn't think of me or my buddies doing that with Flash or AJAX. It's half baked because we are inside the oven. We've gotta wait for 1.1 (and Orcas) to hit RTM... And, you're damned right in that they didn't ship anything :D Yep.

And, you’re damned right in that they didn’t ship anything :D
