I started to look at the data entity model but found it horribly confusing in VS2008. Our project manager previously worked for a large company that had played with it and found the problems it created for them outweighed any advantages. I may come around to it as it evolves, but for now I'll stay with our homegrown entity model.

This framework abstracts the relational schema of the database and presents it as a conceptual schema. This is particularly beneficial for ISVs because by working with a conceptual schema, the commercial application developer avoids having to write complicated joins to connect all the related items of data, greatly reducing development time, resources and therefore, COGS. ISV developers can access their data using ORM-like classes, LinQ syntax, or with a new SQL syntax named EntitySQL, all of which further reduce COGS.
