Good article. Thanks for writing it.
Having used various versions of Intellisense with SQL, I have to say I usually don't like it. Too many times, I've had the drop-down picklist cover up stuff that I actually want to see. If I were to choose one over the other, I'd go with Redgate's, because it works with other versions of SQL, while the bit in Management Studio 2008 only works with SQL 2008. If you connect to a 2000 or 2005 server, no intellisense. Redgate's will handle those. I've also tried the one from ApexSQL, and it works well too, but again, I don't like any of them very much for myself.
I like most of the other new features for 2008.
