already tried it.
Typically, I stay away from new things until out for a while, but at the
rate this project has been growing, it would save some pain to not have to
worry about the 4GB limit. Since I won't be using any of the 'new' features,
I'm just hoping that they didn't 'break' the old stuff, like they did with
Access 2007.
The SQL Server team seems to be pretty responsive to fixing bugs
So if you see a problem in R2 not there in original post in a SQL
Server forum (wherever that is.) Now the SQL Server MVPS like to
have a complete test case included in the posting. Complete with
table and query creation DDL. This way they can run the code and
verify the problem in a few seconds and then pass on the bug to MS.

Mind you so is the Access team is responsiveto bugs too as I've
participated in a few. They just take tmie of course.

I actually found a bug in Access 2007 where it doesn't construct a proper
where clause when requesting an inserted record for a form bound to an
updatable SQL Server view. I have on open case with MS for over three months
now and they are still scratching their heads to find a workaround - never
mind a fix.
Oh dear. Possibly create a new thread with details and we can help
suggest a work around. I'm not that good with complex SQL but there
are others who certainly are.
