Well, Silverlight's keyboard handling is far less capable than that of WPF; it has to cope with multiple browsers running on multiple operating systems and has to be more constrained due to the security restrictions of the plug-in.

Anyone who’s developed a UI application using Windows Forms, WPF or Silverlight is probably aware that you have to implement the INotifyPropertyChanged interface to get two-way data binding between UI elements and an underlying data source. My Simple MVVM Toolkit provides base classes that include convenient helper methods for firing the PropertyChanged event in a type-safe manner. To solve this, it’s possible to write a helper method that accepts a lambda expression instead of a string. You can download the code for this blog post here. null ).
