well, I have been playing with the Blend 3 Preview + Silverlight 3 Beta

I have only upgraded some projects and checked out a few new features

Intellisence in Blend is very cool + the ability to edit .cs / .vb files,
the ability to collapse regions would really make it :)

Merged Resource Dictionaries very cool stuff, this single file Generic.xaml
used to kill me

Blend 3 Preview seems to be a big improvement from Blend 2 sp1
and the speed of Blend 3 preview is really nice, a lot quicker then Blend 2
sp1

I still have a heap of the new controls & features etc. to play with,
read about them, just not played with them yet...
but so far it's looking really nice :)

I personally can't wait for Blend 3/Silverlight 3  :)
