Silverlight is Going Mobile with Nokia

Just a quick note to highlight this story from the BBC: https://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/7276907.stm

Today Microsoft and Nokia announced a deal that will see a mobile version of the Silverlight plugin installed on some new Nokia devices. Initially it will just be on their high-end Symbian S60 based devices with the potential for distribution on other handset models moving forward.

This should bring a whole new level of rich Internet applications to mobile devices and broaden the appeal of Silverlight to developers who will be happy to know their code will run on yet another platform.
