Gonzo Action FigureWhat’s the one thing Microsoft can do to really help partners get up to speed with the new version?

Provide the -incentive- for the partners to install and run ( Dogfood ) the product in their own environments while they access the plethora of resources available on Microsoft and in the community. The Partners have access to the Software (Action Pack, MSDN etc) they have access to the Resources, MSDN, Newsgroups, Forums, Blogs. They have access to the peer community, Lists, User Groups. They need incentive / motivation to become “hands on” experts.
