Out of curiosity, why? It would seem to me that this (C#):
(x, y) => x + y
is much preferable to this (JS):
function(x, y) { return x + y; }
and is syntactically sugarlicious in JS 1.8 (MDC link)
function(x, y) x + y
In the SSJS space, some frameworks support more recent JS specifications which include some more interesting language capabilities than lambda syntax. One of my favorites is destructuring assignment which is used often with the require() function in a way similar to Java's import statement.

The Palm Pre on Sprint does roam on Verizon's network, but the data plan does not. Without a data plan, the Palm Pre is comparable to the Jitterbug.
