We already know Microsoft’s graphical web plug-in, Silverlight, is headed to Windows Mobile 7 after missing the 6.5 boat, but work is already well underway and showing some very promising fruit. The above video shows a simulator running Silverlight in as a home screen plug-in, which hosts a little something called Windows Vista Mobile. Given this is still in the test tube phase, it’s pretty cool to see Silverlight working in earnest, and running something as ambitious as mobilized Windows Vista.
