    Though we breifly tough on the topic, I guess we digressed a bit. I'll see if Steve can answer it here.

    @vanditk -

    VS 2010 adds some very cool usability features, most cool is the ability to use it on 2 monitors. To be honest, now that I have that ability, I am not sure how I lived without it. :) There are lots of other small enhancements with windows, docking, etc. To be honest I have to get use to the way we close a window and the performance is the same as 2008, no major improvement there. (But if you use VS2010 in a VPC it is actually a little slower due to the vector graphics video driver. You have to use VMWare to get the rock star perf in a VPC, they have the driver.)

    As for telerik, we offer the entire range of tools you would expect, from UI components, refactoring tools, code analysis, ORM, and testing (and mocking.) We fully integrate with VS 2010, so please check us out. :)

    thanks @Stephen and @baxiabhishek . Looking forward to using VS 2010 and I did check out the telerik's controls for Silverlight. The book control and the Silverlight Grid are slick. Good job.
    (too bad as I am working on a Silverlight 3 project, can't use them in it as they require installing Silverlight 4 :( )
