Additionally he shows off a "smarter" DataSet designer where you can have tables coming from server and client data stores all contained

In SQL Server 2008, you can perform insert, update, or delete operations in a single statement using the MERGE statement. The MERGE statement allows you to join a data source with a target table or view, and then perform multiple actions against the target object based on the results of that join.
