WPF Paging Control for WPF Applications - Dynamics CRM - PowerObjects
Decent start on a paging control - with nothing built in kind of nice just to have a starting point regardless of if it gets 100% changed (or maybe more honest is don't care about using time re-imagining or developing a paging control from 'first principals')
