Remarks

WCF Data Services provides the DataServiceCollection<T> class to support binding data to Silverlight controls. This class inherits from the ObservableCollection<T> class, which implements the INotifyCollectionChanged interface and is the primary data binding mechanism for Silverlight-based applications.

You can load an ObservableCollection<T> binding collection by using any collection that implements the IEnumerable<T> interface. Items loaded into the binding collection must implement the INotifyPropertyChanged interface.
