 Silverlight 4 extends the out-of-browser capabilities pioneered in Silverlight 3 that allow a user’s Web presence to establish closer, more persistent relationships with customers without any additional runtime download or the need to write applications in a different way. With Trusted Silverlight applications, developers can now enable users to read and write files to their MyDocuments, MyMusic, MyPictures and MyVideos folder (or equivalent for non-Windows platforms) and COM automation enables access to devices and other system capabilities such as a USB security card reader.
