Update: It looks like the pages (and the blog post) have been taken down.

I'll have a lot more information on Windows Presentation Foundation/Everywhere (WPF/E) coming up on Monday, but it looks like David Boschman has some links on his blog. Including a link to the new WPF/E page on MSDN. (via John Dowdell).

It looks like the download is unavailable, but if you look at the Top Downloads section you'll see samples as well as downloads for both Windows and Mac. In addition, there is a lot of information on the WPF/E FAQ that Microsoft has up.

Now, as I said, I'll have a lot more analysis up Monday, but I think a lot of people are going to be very impressed by WPF/E. The WPF/E and Expression teams have put a lot of thinking into what an RIA web technology should be and this is going to allow for a great cross-browser experience and complete with Flash in a big way. In addition, developers are going to find it very easy to use the technology, so I can't wait until Monday to see what people think.
