A day earlier than expected, Microsoft has released version 3 of its Flash alternative Silverlight, including a number of related tools to aid in Silverlight development. It comes with a whole lot of new features.

Anyone who tried to develop for Silverlight (or latest Flash, for that matter) knows that those are great technologies and personally I would love to get rid of HTML+Javascript mess.
So I welcome Silverlight3 a lot. My only concern is I would want more from Microsoft, where "more" means a way to integrate Silverlight with ASP.NET server-side code. Yes, we have WebServices, REST and blablabla but I would have expected to be able to call server-side code from Silverlight managed code in a way which wouldn't require me to develop a separate WebService or page :-\
That's my biggest complaint towards Silverlight, which I like a lot.
