The one difference I was hoping for was an auto-complete facility like you get in Visual Studio. In my opinion, it's so long overdue that people might forget about even doing it!

Otherwise, 2005's a good improvement over 2000 with all the features you mentioned, but with the brand new GUI it still feels like an incremental update and not a complete revolution that I was expecting. Though, I'll hold my final judgement until I get a chance to play with it properly.
