>>How can you say that? Just because you have a couple of months knowledge in .Net doesn't make you an expert, neither does my 9 years, but I am adaptable to what works and what works well. We have been using MVVM for nearly 2 years now. The power of Silverlight and WPF is in its capability to bind to data easily. The power of MVVM is in the binding of the ViewModel to the View... Binding is the key.... It all happens auto-magically when set up correctly.. MVVM works extremely well with silverlight, MVC not so well.

We used a sort of MVP approach years ago in winforms... haven't done that for nearly 3 years now.... Silverlight Rocks....
