Have a look at MSCUI demonstrator http://www.mscui.net/PatientJourneyDemonstrator/ and http://www.mscui.net/DesignGuide/DesignGuide.aspx if you are looking for UI inspiration or just to keep up to date with what is going to be a very heavily pushed

From a course I attended Monday, MS are working on an entire "line of business" component approach which this, I think, is the first example.

Note that the component are all available as open source under a non- restrictive license (MPL). http://www.codeplex.com/mscui/

Hmm - nice porting job. Just need a few basic vector implementations.

One of the great ironies is that both MS and Apple are pushing bindings as the way to go in UI development, with WPF and Cocoa. Hopefully we will see them return to RB in a more robust form.
