I am always in doubt that Silverlight will beat Flash.
Brad Abrams has posted Silverlight 2.0 Developer Poster here (it's 6.5 MB). It is great to see some new improvements on Silverlight. But one thing that shocks me is Microsoft cancelled Silverlight support for Opera.

Being a loyal Opera user for eight years, I find that Opera is simply irreplacable. But until now I have to use multiple web browsers just for viewing Silverlight content. Silverlight is cross-browser and cross platform? I don't think so.
On April 2007, Microsoft announced that Silverlight support will be available for Opera. It is also said that Silverlight team is working with Opera team on making sure the browser will support Silverlight. This is surely a good news for Opera users but it just never happens. I think if Microsoft really want to make Silverlight a truly cross-browser and cross-platform they should support more browsers. Else, more people like me will just stick to Adobe Flash.
