We're contemplating making the jump from 2000 to 2008. Anyone have any compelling reasons to go to 2005 insead?

when are you thinking of upgrading? 2008 is not likely to be out before at least next summer

Last I hear was 2nd Q 2008, although I think the 'official' launch is still Feb 2008. We're not really under any time constraints.
