Best path for charting/visualization controls for desktop WPF apps?

Looking to build an desktop application for a client using WPF/
Silverlight 2.0 or Adobe Flex 2.0 and because of my ability to use C#
and the integration requirements, the WPF solution would be the most
cost effective solution, except for the lack of visualization
controls.

I realize Infragistics and other vendors have products out there that
provide for this, but none that I've found are as cost effective as
the rich visualization controls Adobe provides with Flex Builder.

This is really not an apples to apples comparison, and again most
benefits are for the Silverlight implementation, I just don't
understand why if Microsoft created Silverlight to compete why they
wouldn't have included everything Adobe is doing with Flex Builder,
but enough with that rant.

If anyone was found a solid, cost effective solution for rich
visualization controls of the same quality as the Adobe Flex
visualization controls I'd really like to hear from you.

Thanks
Jeremy

Now I've found another...

Is any one charting packing considered to be the "best"? We've used ChartFX but wasn't too happy about the way data had to be populated along with some other issues which slip my mind right now and Dundas has bugs and doesn't do a good enough job displaying axis labels and is very slow to paint large numbers of series and data points. We're currently evaluating ProEssentials which we are happy with but it's not a native .NET package. ...
