Answer 2

If you just need to invoke memcached itself from C#, check out this list of clients.

Answer 3

There is Microsoft's upcoming distributed caching framework code named Velocity

I don't know how it will be licensed when released.

Answer 4

We are using MemCached in our .net applications and so far we are pretty happy. As to Velocity we considered it as an option. It is supposed to be much more powerful than memcached, but we decided against using it because it is too new (read potentially unstable), and also because the licensing of the released version is unknown at this time
