WPF Coming into the mainstream with excellent component vendor support
I love the ecosystem around Microsoft technology... The 3rd party component vendors add some much jazz and productivity to our platforms. I recently saw a list of the component vendors already shipping products for WPF and I couldn't help but share it.
Are there any I am missing? What has your experience with these been?
Actipro WPF Studio: Ribbon, Bar Code, Wizard, DateTime, Calendar, Transition, Color Selection, Transition Effects Library
Divelements: Office UI, Window Management
DevComponents: Office UI, Window Management
SoftwareFx: Charts
Infragistics: Carousel, DataPresenter, Grid, Masked Edit, DateTimeEdit, CurrencyEdit, NumericEdit, CheckEdit, TextEdit, ThemePacks, Chart
Component One Schedule, MonthCalendar, Chart, Grid
Xceed: DataGrid
Blendables: Zoombox, ElementSnapshot, Carousel, ChromelessWindow, DragAndDrop, Pie Chart, OS Check, Timeline Panel, Binding MarkupExtensions, NumbericRangeToObjectConverter
Mindscape: ProperityGrid
neodynamic: BarCode
Syncfusion: Docking, Office 2007 Ribbon, GroupBar and Char
Orbifold: diagramming tool (free and commercial versions)
Kevin's Bag-o-Tricks: tons of UI controls and samples

Thanks for adding it Brad :-) As an update, our first control is not a DataGrid, it's a PropertyGrid (like the property editor in Visual Studio or Blend), not a generic data grid. Thanks again! John-Daniel Trask MindscapeAnonymous
