The Bleeding Edge Gets Painful
The March 2008 ASP.NET MVC Preview 2 is incompatible with AJAX and Dynamic Data. Ouch!
AJAX and dynamic data features cannot be mixed in the same Web site or application as the new ASP.NET MVC. You should use separate Web sites or applications.

Actually it makes quite a lot of sense. The AJAX implementation of ASP.NET in regards to their update panel doesn’t fit in to the model that MVC provides, since the latter does not use ViewState for one.

You figure anything with the word "bleeding" in it wouldn’t exactly be the most pleasant
It’s almost refreshing to see actual breaking changes in betas again. Google pretty much broke the word "beta" by keeping all their products in permanent beta and now people expect a beta to work just like the real thing.

Hadi, yes the MS Ajax is not the best fit with their MVC. I am currently using jQuery with MS MVC with great results.

Yep. jQuery is awesome and works great with ASP.NET MVC. Highly recommended. In fact, that’s one of the reasons I decided to integrate jQuery with Intraweb also.
