WPF Browser Application VS ASP.Net Web Site

We will be soon developing our new Web based project. We are still thinking
should we use XBAP/WPF (XAML Browser Application)
or regular ASP.Net Web Project.

What are the Pro and cons of using these.

Any idea

Thanks
DNB

a wpf browser project is the same as writing a java applet/application, only
you use IE and .net instead. you would do it for the same reasons you would
write a java application.

the main wpf cons are:

1. User must have .net installed, and use IE to access the app.
2. slow load time (.net vm must be loaded and app jit'd)

the main wpf pros:

1. rich UI (winforms)
2. coding understood by windows programers

the main asp.net cons:

1. programmer must learn web model
2. somewhat limited UI
3. cross browser testing required

the main asp.net pros:

1. cross browser compatiability (universal access)
