When will NA be ready for Visual Studio 2008?
The Infragistics ASP.Net Development manager discusses this on his blog.

Darrell,
The link above doesn't work because there's and extra "%20" tacked onto the end of it. If you remove the %20 characters it works.
In your bog post you said a release would be out in about 60 days or so. Will this be a free update to all of NA subscribers?
Lets hope it is covered within current subscribers for upgrade. Also let me join the voices of other subscribers of this marvellous suite... please, please, with cherry on top release the 2008 supported version when you can :-)
I think a committed delivery day will go a long way to restoring the confidence of your subscriber base here, so we can at least do some planning. :-)
Thanks in advance, and keep up the great work.

Add any control, a standard status strip with one status label for example.Change the text of the label.Add an UltraToolbarsManager.Click Run and then stop. You can't click on the statusbar label in the designer anymore.You can select it via the Document Outline. Change the text. Notice that the file has not been flagged as dirty because the change you made has not been written to the .designer. Any changes you make to anything on the form will not be saved.Close the form and re-open it (losing all changes).You can now make changes to anything until you run the application again then the problem re-appears. I have verified this on a co-worker's machine as well.I have verified that this does not happen in VS 2005.It also happens with Dock Manager.

I believe, this does not matter whether the form is MDI or SDI, it happens to both of them. I just started evaluating NA for WinForms with VS 2008 and having the designer problem with almost all the NA components whether its UltraToolbarsManager, TextEditor or DockManager etc.
I would encourage you to contact our Developer Support team so that this can get logged as a compatibility issue.

The only things I have heard of so far are some potential problems binding to LINQ queries and also some potential design-time problems opening wizards and/or custom property editors.
