Worthwhile upgrade [Posted on 2008-02-22]
I think integrated support for linq and intellisense for javascript are enough to make this worth the price. Only problems I had involved 3rd party controls, but I think all of those issues have been resolved by the vendors now. Includes easy transition from ASP.NET 2 to 3.5 websites.

VS 2008 Review [Posted on 2008-04-07]
As always, VS 2008 does not disappoint. The UI is smooth and clearly laid out. Watch out for the "uses" libraries added to the default new ASPX form - they differ from 2005's and can break some older code.

VS2008 Standard Edition [Posted on 2008-04-12]
I like the changes from VS2005, there is much improvement. The addition of AJAX and LINQ support is great.
