Hi,

I've been programming .NET 2.0 (C#) for some time now and I focus mainly on windows forms programming. I am looking for some book that sums up the new features of both .NET 3.5 and C# 3.0. I've searched an Amazon, but with no luck.

I realize that there is probably no specialized book on this matter and to get familiar with all that new features, more extensive learning will be necessary, but for now, I think that this will suffice.

Thank you in advance for your posts! :)

I don't know of any book either. You might want to consider getting an Advanced C# book using .NET 3.5 and browsing through it. Also reference the MSDN and find the changelog/new features. This should give you a general overview of what is new.

Not much is new; I didn't even notice a difference!

I believe the Wrox publishing books do a pretty good job of pointing out the new features of 3.5 but most of the book will still be repetitive so I would suggest picking up a book that you like as a referance anyways and then its not just there for the few new options.
