Silverlight on Windows Mobile?

Is it possible to develop Silverlight applications to work on Windows Mobile devices (pre-WP7)? I see everything around on the Internet - in articles from 2008 and 2009 - that they added support for Silverlight in WinMo 6.1, for example:

Internet Explorer Mobile The new version of Internet Explorer Mobile makes it easy to view full-screen web pages and multimedia on the Internet with a smartphone. A Microsoft press release said the new version takes advantage of Internet Explorer 6 technologies and supports industry standards such as H.264, Adobe Flash, and Microsoft Silverlight. The update will be available for mobile phones in the third quarter of 2008, with the first Windows Mobile phones using the new version to be available by the end of 2008.

But I found the SL application, supposedly adapted for mobile devices, but when I try to get there in Pocket Internet Explorer on my WinMo 6.1 device, it shows me the "Get Silverlight" button, but clicking on it does nothing.

So what is this story? Is SL / WinMo possible?

No, not possible on WinMo. The whole delight of MIX was that it was available for Windows Phone 7 (a successor and very different from WinMo devices). Here's the starter link: http://www.silverlight.net/getstarted/devices/windows-phone/
