XNA 4.0 Official

XNA 4.0 was officially announced today at GDC 2010, earlier this week support was announced by Windows Phone 7 Series phones for XNA developed products and to support this new platform XNA 4.0 has been announced. So besides support for Microsoft's new mobile OS, what does XNA 4 change?

Firstly, there is now support for Visual Studio 2010. Next there have been audio improvements with support for dynamic audio output and microphone input. Further to this there have been a number of graphics changes and optimisations, with the addition of new effect classes (like BasicEffect) to support skinned animations, environment mapping, dual textures and alpha testing.
