Telerik Selling Controls for Silverlight

Telerik One of the strange thing about Silverlight is that unlike Flash, it doesn’t have any native controls, it just uses HTML controls and has some special hooks for ASP.NET AJAX (keep this in mind when you’re calling Silverlight a “Flash killer”). But the team at Telerik have built some pretty cool 3D cube controls they are calling RadControls for Silverlight and are selling them over on their site.

The interface (which requires the Silverlight plugin) takes the combo box metaphor and puts it into a cube. I think from a UI perspective, it’s a very neat way to select furniture. The script is a bit slow on my computer, and I’m not entirely sure how they did it, but it looks pretty spiffy.
