Any opinions on Word 2010's best new features?
This is what I've got so far:
customizable ribbons
yeah, I know there are a bunch of artist effects for pictures, but, wouldn't anyone who care about those things have graphic software already?
Am feeling rather underwhelmed.

I do like the Navigation Pane (View/ Navigation Pane). Particularly the search tab that highlights words in yellow.

Re: Word 2010 best features?
Ribbon customization is definitely a step forward - it's unforgivable that they omitted it from Office 2007!
You can take screenshots from within Word (Insert tab > Illustrations group > Screenshot button). Convenient, but won't make me give up FastStone Capture, though.
You can rearrange a document using drag-and-drop in the Navigation pane (View tab > Show group > Navigation Pane button).

The navigation pane, particularly its browse search results tab, is my favorite.
