If you have been looking at the documentation for the last 6 months or so, you may be used to seeing two entries in the MSDN Table of Contents at this spot: one for Silverlight 3, one for Silverlight 4 (Beta or RC). Now, there is just a single "Silverlight" node.

Generally the information in documentation is written as it applied to Silverlight 4. In cases where there is a difference in behavior if you are still targeting Silverlight 3, the difference is often called out in a separate section of the topic. Or in some cases there are entirely separate topics for a subject area as it applies to Silverlight 3.

The Silverlight 4 documentation is available online from Microsoft. However, it is not the fastest way to find documentation. Instead, you should know that the Silverlight 4 documentation is available online, it is just a little bit hidden.

Cheryl from the Silverlight SDK team will give you some pointers on how to decipher whether you are in the .NET Framework for Silverlight or the full framework docs and how you can navigate between the two documentation sets.
