So are the OLAP components integrated into RS in the CTP? On Dundas today it doesn't appear that they are available for RS at all only .NET.

No. Integrating the Dundas OLAP components into any Microsoft product is pure speculation at this point. We will see the advanced charting package in SSRS, but that's it so far.

Not sure what you mean by ChartFX in RSBuilder - ChartFX stuff isn't used in the Reporting Services product at all.
