Third Party Silverlight Controls Start to Emerge

I've been working a lot on WPF lately and with the new CTP's of Expression Blend, I've been starting to play around with Silverlight.

Much to my surprise (and perhaps horror) there aren't a lot of controls built into the Silverlight runtime. 

Fortunately, ComponentOne has been working on that and you can see what they've been up to in their labs.  Their control suite for Silverlight, called Sapphire contains the following:

  • textbox, masked textbox, numeric textbox
  • combobox
  • lists galore
  • layout controls: stackpanel, hyperpanel, etc.
  • date pickers
  • color picker, sliders, etc.
  • Much, much more

I wonder what the "hyperpanel" does. Sounds like something out of Star Trek.
