What's new in Visual Studio 2008 ?

I had attended MS tech sneak preview two weeks ago, and i think they have make a few improvements:

* Multi-target - the new visual studio able to compile and build different version of .NET project
* CSS designer - i found this itself quite useful. No longer need to manually mess up with all CSS text files.
* Javascript real-time debugger - this time it's really fully integrated and you can breakpoint it just like your normal .NET code.
* WPF "Cider" designer, designer support for WPF/WinForms interop
* ClickOnce enhancements
* Syncronization Services for ADO.NET
* Client Application Services
