Hello Shawn,
Thank you for contacting us.
Straight to your questions:
1. At this point RadDataGrid supports any in-memory data, implementing the IEnumerable interface. As for the writing - last week we announced a BETA of the upcoming Q2 2013 release. It adds built-in editing functionality over the in-memory objects (ViewModels) in RadDataGrid. You can either download and experiment with the BETA or get the official Q2 2013 release by the end of the next week.
2. RadDataGrid is a more complex items-like control and the ItemTemplate (CellTemplate) is exposed on a per DataGridTemplateColumn basis. Please note, that a Template column is less performing (due to dynamically loaded visual trees) than the Typed columns, which create a default visual depending on the data type. More information about the available column types may be found in this help article.
3. Headers and footers are currently not implemented. This feature is in our product backlog and will probably get in the next Service Pack release - usually within a month after the official release.
Additionally, we ship a large Demo application containing various examples for every component within the suite. The solution should be available at the following location:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Telerik\RadControls for Windows 8 XAML Qx 2013\Demos.
I hope this information is useful. Let me know in case you have other questions.
