It's after all slated for the end of this year (2007) early 2008... As for Flash/Flex apps, they are popping up all over the cloud. Consumer facing and business facing. WPF and WPF/E aren’t even a reality as of yet. Seems MS screwed the pooch on this one. - jason Yuvi,

WPF/E is more of a Flash Competitor, and works on Mac OS X as well... WPF is more like bringing XHTML and Flash to the Desktop, something that the still-far-away Apollo project promises to do. It's on the desktop, and running on the browser is just an afterthought. It's just the new Win32, so if you've building a new "desktop" application, it'll use WPF... In one sentence: WPF and Flash are two completely different beasts. WPF is not really a competitor for Flash. WPF/E is more of a Flash Competitor, and works on Mac OS X as well…
