Book recommendations for VS 2005

Hi all,

I have an issue with which I need your advice.

I am an MCSD.NET on VS 2003 and would like to learn VS 2005 now (or
more specifically VB 2005). (Yes, it's late, but better late than
never) Please recommend some books which
will help me to *quickly* come up to speed with the 2005 edition.

I do not want books that start out by teaching you programming, or a VS

2005 for dummies book. I am looking for a book of the "VS 2005 for
VS.NET
programmers" sort, that quickly explains the differences, improvements,

and changes in the new version, and the new way of doing things.

I am currently reading the 8 chapter PDF booklet that MS has published,

but it kinda leaves a lot out.

Any help is appreciated.

Regards,

Cerebrus.
