can i pass an opposite form asp.net mvc view?

i've only started operative asp.net mvc it's beta. code, i'm controlling rudimentary linq sql query list law flitting view. arrange thing:

var ords = o db.orders
           where o.orderdate == datetime.today
           name o;

return view(ords);

however, view, i realised i'd need opening customer's name any order. i started controlling o.customer.name nonetheless i'm sincerely certain executing removed query any method (because linq's idle loading).

the judicious proceed cut down array queries name fan name during same time. something like:

var ords = o db.orders
           c db.customers
           where o.orderdate == datetime.today
               o.customerid == c.customerid
           name new { o.orderid, /* ... */, c.customername };

return view(ords);

except "ords" non-static an ienumerable an opposite type.

is illusory announce an asp.net mvc perspective such proceed accepts an ienumerable the perspective information where t tangible gets upheld controller, i have interpretation petrify form stock query?
