Getting Started with Silverlight

I've downloaded Blend and installed Silverlight as I saw the sample
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library//bb404300.aspx) on the msdn
homepage.

What am I missing here? When I open a new project I do not get the
Silverlight scripting project offered to me. I am on an XP Pro SP2 with .NET
3.0 (in fact 1.1, 2.0 and 3.0) with VS.NET 2005.

Obviously without this project template I cannot create the sample project
to see how this stuff works.

Please help!

Unfortunatelly there is no project template available for VS2005 as there
was in previous releases.
There is one available for Visual Studio Codename Orcas if i'm not mistaken.
What I do, in order to overcome this problem, is start a new project from
Blend (which has the proper templates) and then open the project created
from Visual Studio.

HTH,

I have Blend installed and was running that to try the sample in the page
from MSDN however the project type (Silverlight 1.0 Script Application) is
not available - from Blend.
