Edit: You're right about Silverlight, though. That will be interesting. I just took a quick look at the website for it, and I see nothing about HTML5 or anything else. I don't even get the whole Silverlight thing anyway, although I always thought it was supposed to be closer to Adobe Air than Adobe Flash.
