We have a .Net library that accesses some custom hardware via a USB port. I've read that Silverlight contains a subset of the .Net runtime. So, my question is, would this subset be sufficient for the .Net library to function?

+3  A: 

No, you cannot use a .NET library that accesses a USB port from inside Silverlight.

The closest you can get is an SL4 Out-of-browser app with elevated privs which can use COM components.
