Silverlight open source font replacement for Segoe

I'm currently building a LOB application in Silverlight 4. I've been considering the question of typography for the application.

After some experimentation on the design side the font that people like is Segoe UI. Now I can embed this font and although the font is freely available in Windows we don’t have distribution rights for this font.

I am looking for an open source font visually equivalent of the Segoe family that can be freely distributed.

Does such a font exist?
