Vista - displaying a deserialized Page in ElementHost

I have a deserialized a Page uisng XAMLReader.Load() now I want this
Page to be displayed in a ElementHost.

ElementHost host;
UIElement element = (UIElement)XamlReader.Load(xmlReader);
host.Child = element;

This will throw an excpetion stating that only Frame or Window may be
the parent of a Page.
Wrapping the Page into an instance of a Frame object first would
require me to set a uri for Frame.Source but since I deserialized the
Page I don't have a uri for it ...

The error is exactly right.

Can you remove the "Page" element from the XAML you're loading from the
xmlReader (leaving just the children of the Page)? Or maybe change it to a
Grid or some other Panel type?
