For all developers out there who want to shine their creativity on business solutions with MS Silverlight, beware that it does not support the staple DataSet object that we are so used to binding to our grids: Yet another sign that the division between client and server side technologies is always becoming more clear.  One solution I have found that is useful to overcome this is to use a DataSet on a server side architecture, then create generic List<> of the business object that you need.  Write a method that takes in a DataRow object and create your List items that way.  You can then access the List<> through a client consumed WCF service and bind to a grid.
