I'm already in Orlando for TechEd 2008 Developers. Tomorrow I and Paolo Pialorsi will be at the TechEd bookshop for a book signing of our just released Programming Microsoft LINQ, scheduled at 4:00PM-4:30PM. I wrote a post a few days a go with the list of chapters included in the book. LINQ to SQL and LINQ to Entities are two technologies that are significative to access data, even if you don't have to use them in every possible scenario.
If you are attending to TechEd, meet us tomorrow at the bookshop to talk about LINQ!
