Yep, finally it's there.  The new VS2010 and .Net 4.0.  Yesterday was the lauch event of it.  And if you're a MS subscriber, then you can download it now from your subscribtion.  So go there, login, download and install it and enjoy this great new release.

You can still see the launch event if you have missed it, just go here: http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/watch-it-live.

For more info go to Scott Guthrie's blog and read this article: http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2010/04/12/visual-studio-2010-and-net-4-released.aspx.

Also, txs to my friend Kris van der Mast, here's a link for e free eBook about VS2010: http://blog.krisvandermast.com/ct.ashx?id=9e36e215-e443-442d-8427-6140ba274408&url=http%3a%2f%2fwww.microsoft.com%2fdownloads%2fdetails.aspx%3fdisplaylang%3den%26FamilyID%3d12a6de81-c633-4f2c-a35f-cea6fe772712

The book is not a language primer, a language reference, or a single technology book. It's a book that will help professional developers move from previous versions of Visual Studio (starting with 2003 and on up). It will cover the features of Visual Studio 2010 through an application. It will go through a lot of the exciting new language features and new versions of the most popular technologies without putting the emphasis on the technologies themselves. It will instead put the emphasis on how you would get to those new tools and features from Visual Studio 2010.

MVP, Jeff Levinson, has created a nice Work item visualization tool (first version).  This tool turns work item relationschip information into some nice DGML graphs.  These graphs can be viewed  in the new architecture visualization tools.

You can find this great tool at codeplex: http://visualization.codeplex.com/. So go there, download it, use it, etst it and give feedback :-) to improve the tool.
