A few improvements, but a lot of disappointments - CLSmeed
"iWork 09 file formats are not compatible with iWork 08."
This is not true. It is totally compatible and easily opens '08 and other previous versions. As with ALL new upgrades, previous versions will not open the new versions. However, Pages '09 gives you the option to save in a previous version that can be opened by previous versions of Pages. Same with Keynote and Numbers.
I used to use MS Office all the time and iWork '09 has finally allowed me to rid myself of the office suite except that I'm keeping Word on hand just to make sure my Pages docs are translating properly. There's been a huge improvement in this with Pages '09. So far so good.
