IE8 and SharePoint

I've just begun to use IE8 and I've run into some issues. I had a co-worker say to me,"Not all new things are good". That's true, but someone needed to be the first to fly J. It's time to embrace new software and technology. Not in a haphazard way, lets start testing sooner…writing policies sooner. At its best, it is truly there to make our lives easier. So lets begin…

Θ The first problem I ran into is that the DataSheet view didn't work well on initial install. Example there's a drag feature that allows you to duplicate cells or have them automatically increment. This does not work with IE8 or in the compatibility view that allows you to simulate IE7.

Θ Another problem I call the Something's missing here… A good example is at: http://iphonetoolbox.com/wallpaper/squirrel/ If you view this site as IE8 when you rollover the images on the right you'll see a popup of the image. But if you hit the compatibility tool you'll see the rollovers as they were meant. With a Iphone skin on it.

So how do you know what you're missing? You're guess is as good as mine.

Fix for both problems:
After a little searching on the Web, I was able to find a solution to the Data Sheet View Problems. Installing 2007 Microsoft Office Suite Service Pack 2 (SP2): http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=b444bf18-79ea-46c6-8a81-9db49b4ab6e5&displaylang=en
Proceed with caution if you decide to go this route.
In my honest opinion, IE8 is just like any new software. There's gonna be bumps in the road. So far I like it.
