All of you who have ATI graphics cards, take note that they have open sourced 
all of their current drivers. New ones will be released as they become 
available. This is great news as AMD/ATI was one of the big holdouts for open 
source drivers. This should spur Nvidia to improve its support. It can only be 
good news for Linux users. Be patient if you have a really new card, but it 
should not be too long. Kernel developers will be adding them quickly over the 
next few months.

I have also been using Jaunty the last while and it looks good. For starters it 
has ext4 and it is much faster. It copies large files and folders in a small 
fraction of the time. It includes KDE 4.2 for the Kubuntu version. The 
developers claim that they expect it to be really stable.
