I just downloaded the new WinFX SDK for VS Beta 2. I will install it tonight and start reviewing the changes. I've been spending quite some time with WinFX lately and it is exciting and daunting at the same time. It is remarkable the amount of work that went into it. However, IMHO they've exposed quite a bit of useless stuff (from a business apps point of view) The whole animation namespace and the 3D stuff is nice and everything but applies to select few graphics specialists. I honestly don't see how businesses will benefit from these two features. The good thing is that they also did an awesome job on the text formatting and document namespaces, I've always thought that's an area where WinSDK was very lacking.
Anyway, I'll be digging in over the next couple of months trying to wrap my head around all this stuff.
