I had a go at it when 3.5 SP1 came out. It has nice features but it is not ready for production work. For example it has bugs when you try to change an existing design you have made and just refuses to change it, so many times I had to delete the whole design and start again. This was OK in the small project I've tried it but completely unacceptable for a bigger project. I will wait before using it in a bigger/production level project, probably when its next version comes out I will try again.

I have to concur. I have been looking for a ORM suitable for winforms. I took a look at EF and decided that it complete enough for use. There are also many more mature ORM frameworks available, nHibernate being one of the more popular ones. The link below lists some of the limitations of EF:

MS is continuing to develop the framework but do you really want to risk embracing a framework that could be abandoned in a couple of year for the next new thing?
