JetBrains released a beta version of ReSharper 3.0 some days ago.
Check out this blog entry to learn about the new features. You can download a fully functional 30-day evaluation version here.

If you don't know ReSharper yet, you should check it out ASAP! It is a great piece of software.

Unfortunately there is some trouble going on in the ReSharper newsgroups. The reason for this is the pricing decisions JetBrains made for ReSharper 3.0. So if you purchased ReSharper 2.5.2 ($149-$249) on April 15th or later you'll get a free upgrade to ReSharper 3.0 for free.

Now there are a number of complaints from those who won't get the free upgrade because they bought ReSharper before April 15th. They are even saying that they kick ReSharper and switch to other tools.
This is ridiculous.

First of all, I haven't run across any other tool that can compete with ReSharper. So I'd say good luck finding something.

And second, if you are a company I bet you didn't hesitate a second when you decided about the $600 coffee dispenser. Now there is a tool that saves you time and money and you still whine about $249 you have to spend?

For several releases JetBrains gave their upgrades out for free. I always wondered how they could do this. Now they are charging for the upgrade, and I'm going to pay for it.

And you know what. If you don't want to pay for the upgrade, just stick to 2.5.2. After all, this is what you paid for. JetBrains never said that upgrades are included for free.
