Scott Gu has shed some light on some of the changes coming to WPF this year. Notably, Scott inidcates that there will be new contols for WPF, one of which is a new a "Ribbon" control. I have thought that for a while that Microsoft needed to get this control to market as the Office 2007 styling has become quite popular.

There are a number of vendors that do offer a WPF ribbon these are shown below.

Also it seems more graphic intensive features such as shadowing etc are being pushed onto the graphics hardware increasing performance. V.cool!
