Fixed group headers and footers have been added - These allow developers to incorporate sections of "must-see" information into each group, which remain visible at all times, including when the containing group is collapsed

Blend support has been greatly improved to let designers take full advantage of the product
Custom data sources are now easier to implement, and support for SQL databases and remote lists has been added.
Thanks to changes in the control's API, many of the features equivalent to those found in the stock Silverlight control are much more easy to configure
Other new features include copy-paste to Excel, the addition of SelectedItem and SelectedItems properties for use with local data, improvements to item selection, the implementation of several properties present in the WPF datagrid, and easy localization and display of filter cell operators. Also, the detail information of groups (e.g., item count, list of items) is now available for group headers and footers (local data).
A new theme (JetPack) has been added.
