Anybody know any good silverlight tutorials?

As the title says :)

I've been waiting for Wrox to release "Professional silverlight 2.0" for ages but it's been delayed by nearly a year and I want to have a Play with silverlight.

Ignoring the silverlight.net site, does anyone know of any good beginners tutorials that focus on coding in Visual Studio instead of Blend?

Jesse Liberty's blog has masses of useful learning material including tutorials and videos - highly recommended.

I wrote a 57-page article for Wrox Press called "Jumping from ASP.NET to Silverlight 2". It is focused on ramping up on the basics, and doesn't involve Blend. And it's seven bucks.

While not strictly a tutorial, my collegue has been reading Pro Silverlight in C# 2008 and from what I heard, he's very pleased with it. Sure, it's not free, but maybe it'll hold you over until Professional silverlight 2.0 is released? :)

I'm currently running through this set of tutorials. Have been quite useful as a very basic primer into the world of Silverlight.
