I was under the same impression as you explained it. But I guess the fact that the web site hasn't caught up with all the new things, looked a bit unclear. These days the last thing you need, is to confuse people more than they are :-)

Thanks!

Ben,

Thanks for pointing this out.

ClientUI would be technologically new branding that encapsulates all UI controls designed for both Silverlight and WPF platform, so you can expect to see ClientUI in our samples, documentation, and technology showcase. So, instead of saying Navigation Framework for WebUI Studio for Silverlight and for WPF, the new ClientUI uniquely simplifies our presentation into "ClientUI Navigation Framework".

However, from the Intersoft website presentation and product packaging wise, we decided to keep using the platform-specific naming convention. This provides a clear path for customers to see our solutions per platform, rather than a unified technological brand.

The current website hasn't fully reflected the new 2010 release. In the RTM, we'll add WPF section under WebUI Studio home page. This is something our marketing team are hard at work :)

In short, the Silverlight and WPF lineups (ClientUI) are still under the main "WebUI Studio" umbrella thus enables us to maintain the consistency of our backend system, marketing and presentation such as in our store, subscription mechanism and more.

Hopefully my explanation is clear enough.

Feel free to let me know if you have any feedback or thoughts.

Jimmy.

I'm not trying to be picky but I see two seperate naming used (one the older name WebUI and the new ClientUI) interchageibly in the same section For example:

---------

Now Available. WebUI Studio 2010 R1 RC.

Introducing WebUI Studio 2010 Release Candidate, one of the most anticipated release featuring total 188 new components across four platforms – ASP.NET, Silverlight 3, Silverlight 4, and WPF 4.

Learn and explore Intersoft’s cutting-edge innovation, ClientUI with 180 new controls targeting Silverlight and WPF.

-----------

Or perhaps some of the new naming is getting mixed with the older text on the site.

just thought I point it out!
