Thanks for that. The key bit of missing info for existing MSDN universal subscribers is how much VS2005 Team Suite will cost. Unfortunately this is all the link has to say:
"Special upgrade pricing to the Team Suite also will be available."

I wonder how many copies of TS Microsoft will sell? to small ISV's like me it will be zero I suspect. I'd love to use most of the TS bits but I just can't see paying even more than the current cost for a Universal sub.

and it looks like Pro will now have 95% of the current 2003 EA edition.

so EA is gone and TS will only be for big shops.
