I have been developing in Silverlight for 2 years now on a multi-million dollar LOB app so I believe I can speak to the subject whereas you have no cogent experience with Silverlight. Silverlight is CrossPlatform by design (designed to run in all browsers). Jobs made the specific decision to not support Silverlight in the Safari browswer on the IPad or IPhone. I have seen Silverlight running in Safari as I have seen Silverlight running in an older copy of IE on Windows Mobile 2 years ago.

I did not know you had that much Silverlight experience. Salud.

Yes, I have been talking out of my you know what lately. It has been pretty bad. But I will bounce back.
