How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- WMV (WMV Video)
Great news: Now you'll be able to use VSTO to build managed Office add-ins for Outlook! Most cool. In this video, Catherine Heller, Developer Tools Technical Evangelist chats with Andrew Whitechapel, an Office program manager who's helped make this great
VSTO Outlook add-in platform possible. For you bloggers out there, check out
Srinath Vasireddy's post for good technical discussion and links to bits.
Andrew also discusses the core architecture of how managed add-ins are possible in Office. Very good discussion of shims and the like.
Enjoy.

I'm trying to understand the Outlook Addin comments. Assuming your talking about the standard outlook COM/Interop addin model using the PIAs and connecting through IExt., why would I need VSTO to do that?
Is the O 12 Addin model changing?
The cool thing about the O-11 addin model is that... even if outlook didnt do this out of the box, you could make it do so pretty easily... The ghenghis project has a class api called AniForm (I think thats it) that looks a lot like the MS Messenger popup so, if you wanted, you could create an addin that hooks into the Outlook Events and, show a Messenger Style popup everytime you receive a new message.
You can certainly create a managed IDTExtensibility2 add-in for Outlook without VSTO. What VSTO 2005 brings to the party is support for the new IStartup-based add-ins. This support includes both a new set of Visual Studio project types, and also a runtime that does all the basic things like creating a separate appdomain, checking security policy, checking for updates, and so on. These services are not available for IDTExtensibility2 add-ins unless you write them yourself.
For reference see John Durant's post re the change to classes changed for the RC:
