1. Does Telerik's Reporting product work the same / fine with Silverlight?
2. Does Telerik's OpenAccess work the same / fine with Silverlight?
3. What criteria can be used to determine whether a new project should be developed in ASP.NET AJAX vs. SILVERLIGHT?
4. How would one go about obtaining unbiased information about which ORM might be better between NHibernate and OpenAccess? Has Telerik performed any real comparisons in speed / scalability / reliability? If so, results?

Hi,
1) We currently do not offer a viewer for Silverlight but it is in our ToDo list for next year. If you can provide some further details on how you plan to use Telerik Reporting with Silverlight we should be able to help you.
2) Yes, OpenAccess works with Silverlight. Please see this blogposts series:
http://blogs.telerik.com/dimitarkapitanov/Posts.aspx
We also have a code library project which demonstrates the integration capabilities:

3) It all depends on your project requirements, but generally Silverlight is recommended for more interactive and media-rich applications. ASP.NET AJAX is more robust for Line of Business applications.
4) Here is a white paper we have recently published on OpenAccess and how it fits in the general ORM environment:
