>I saw the demo in the keynote. It's not as straight forward as in VFP, but it is still pretty cool. I picked up a white paper here that I'm hoping to get to in the next couple of days.

I think this is because C# is not as much VFP-like as the VB language implementation. The VB futures session is 10:00am tomorrow, and 2 video interviews/demos for Channel 9 with the VB team on VB futures, LINQ in VB, etc. will be released on Friday at http://channel9.msdn.com. I did the interviews with a video camera for these upcoming Channel 9 videos, and I will be doing more behind-the-camera interviews for upcoming .NET videos for Channel 9 later this year. The video interview on VB language futures that goes online Friday is 71 minutes, and I'll be interested in reading chat here about how it compares to VFP, the C# implementation, etc. There is also something very cool for VB called XML Literals that is shown in that video, basically like an XML version of TEXTMERGE for VB and more. For a technical whitepaper on some of what is being worked on for VB 9.0, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/VBasic/Future/default.aspx?pull=/library/en-us/dnvs05/html/vb9overview.asp (authored by the same people who are in the Channel 9 video interviews I did going online Friday).
