So Mix 08 is this week and the rumor mill is flying around an off line version of Silverlight much like Adobe AIR.  Technically, Silverlight 2.0 is closer to the desktop version of WPF so the possibility is there.  Ryan Stewart in this article talks about the possibility of SQLite being in an off line version which is a bit silly.  Maybe Access Lite? :)  I don’t know, but I don’t think SQLite is going to even be considered. Personally I don’t think Microsoft has put any weight behind an offline version yet.  I think they’re so busy trying to catch up to Flash/Flex and the toolsets that they’re just not ready for an off line version yet.  Probably next year, but not this one.
