For those of you who are anxiously waiting to get your hands on Visual Studio 2005 beta2 - the time is now! You can sign up here to get the software sent out to you (with a lot of extra goodies). 

What do you get if you sign up?

• Visual Studio 2005 Beta2 on DVD
• SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition Community Technology Preview on DVD
• WeFly247.NET Training DVD

Many of you will already be familiar with the WeLearn247 DVDs (we gave out WeRock247 and Football247 at events earlier in the year and they were very, very popular!). Essentially, WeFly247 is an end-to-end training resource with audio narrated training, source code and tutorials. The DVD takes you through creating Mobile, Smart Client and Web applications for a fictious airline company. Our own Rob Burke is the voice on one of the tutorials covering Avalon.

You will also get regular updates about special MSDN Ireland events (on-line and off-line) that will be scheduled over the next few months to support the program!

Have fun with it! :)
