Entity Framework Complete with Designer! - Move Over LINQ to SQL
Ok, I realize that this title is a bit lofty, and I don't want to give the impression that I don't love LINQ to SQL... but in paroozing around, I see this blog (http://blogs.msdn.com/adonet/archive/2008/04/09/entity-framework-ado-net-data-services-to-ship-with-vs-2008-sp1-net-3-5-sp1.aspx) that confirms the EF designer and other goodness coming in the SP1 release.
While there isn't a date attached to that, it's still great to see that it'll be out soon (and from a pretty official source) :)
Peace,
