  Hello, I am not experiencing any problems with visual studio that concern me atm. however I do have a wish that I would love to see microsoft forfill. We have Microsoft Office for the Windows Phone 7, I would love to see a version of visual studio available on the Windows Phone. I am often needing to give a demonstration of an application and need to make minor changes to source code and I think Visual Studio for the Windows Phone would be perfect for those scenarios. Dont need all the functionality of visual studio. just basic editing of source code would be perfect. Thank You.

  Darren, If you mean using VS to write apps for the phone, it's available now: www.microsoft.com/.../Phone.  If you mean using VS ON the phone to edit apps, VS is way too big.

  David, thanks for giving the end users an opportunity to respond re: Visual Studio. You have said: >The majority of customers actually find it faster than VS2008; Speaking with fellow colleagues and other industry 'trench' workers the general experience is quite the opposite. Recently I loaded our existing company product in vs2008 and was amazed by how crisp text editing and debugging was compared to vs2010. I am running a core i7 with 8 gigs of ram, a very adequate machine and sometimes I must wait 20 seconds to 'Close All Documents' ? I have been scouring the net the past few weeks attempting to find things to speed up the environment (including your tips) but with not much success. I think some thought needs to be given to the basics, namely text editing and debugging, which should be razor sharp - being bogged down is very distracting and inefficient for a programmer. I would love to show you or your team a few of the issues I am sure thousands of developers experience every day, and some of the 'small'  (basic) things that should be addressed.
