Ahh, sorry, it is true that there’s no MVVM in the Silverlight video series.
But the 4-tier concept and MVVM have nothing to do with each other.
Deploying your app in a 4-tier model is covered in the videos, and that works the same no matter how you decide to build your UI.
MVVM is a UI design pattern and has nothing to do with n-tier architecture.
I have not created any content around MVVM yet. I hope to do a video focusing on XAML/MVVM in the next 2-3 months, but the release of .NET 4, SL 4 and CSLA 4 complicates the timing a little…
I believe there is an example that is using Prism that is included in CSLA SL download. I wrote it a long time ago though as part of learning Prism, and I am sure certain things can be done better. It will give you a general idea though if you are interested.
