I have been using Visual Studio 2008 on a trial basis for a little while and found it to be very useful. It is an improvement on the 2005 edition, particularly as it improves support for .Net Framework 3.5 including WPF and Silverlight.

It doesn't however include full design time support for Silverlight, just "readonly", so you need to be proficient with XAML or to have Expression Blend.

Also pay attention to the edition you buy. This is the Standard edition, which is excellent for most projects. Professional edition is much more expensive and is not required for most common tasks.
