WMP 11 - Looks like WPF
Downloaded and installed Windows Media Player. I have to say that I'm pretty impressed. I like the new interface, it's clean.
What I really like though is that it looks like WPF applications to a large degree. When I was playing with WPF before, I was concerned that it was a new design philosophy, so it's really good to see MS applications demonstrating it. (As an aside, IE7 appears to use it as well, but I don't like that the buttons are all over the place.)
I know it's probably not WPF since I don't have WinFX installed at the moment, but it's the same apparent design, so at the same time they are putting forth a new design schema, they are making it available to developers....
