We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

Microsoft Windows Presentation Foundation & Custom Business Objects
How to implement a full WPF application

The Microsoft Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) provides the foundation for building applications and high-fidelity experiences in Windows Vista, blending together application UI, documents, and media content. WPF contains two data sources for XML and objects. To enhance productivity and include WPF applications in lines of business, you need to employ best practices and guidelines in reusing existing internal frameworks through WPF data binding capabilities. That way enterprises will benefit from advanced accessibility, data-driven UIs, and the highly stylized data visualization inherent to the WPF platform.

By leveraging what you have already taken numerous hours to create and maintain you're ensuring your software development with an overall cost savings. WPF provides two data sources inherently: XmlDataSource and ObjectDataSource. The only problem is that there are many WPF data binding examples available but most only show how to bind to XML files. This is not always a realistic scenario so you need to learn how to use your own custom business objects.
