I know the version for .NET 4.0, like the EF itself, is a whole lot further along that what I saw when I looked at it a year and two years ago.
The docs probably do a better job of explaining the extra stuff the framework brings to EF. For example:

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
