How hard is it to transition from WPF to Silverlight?

It’s fairly easy to pick up Silverlight if you know WPF. There are some subtle differences, but most of the concepts apply.
The largest stumbling block is dealing with things that are unsupported in Sliverlight. You often need convoluted workarounds for things that are easy in WPF but unsupported in Silverlight (such as IMultiValueConverter).
