Best of New Features in Illustrator CS5

So, is it Worth Upgrading to Illustrator CS5?
The answer for me is absolutely! The new features in Illustrator CS5 make it well worth the upgrade. The brush enhancements alone are a big deal, and when combined with perspective drawing make this upgrade a must have. For those of you that go whole-hog and get the suite, you will really appreciate the new Flash Catalyst compatibility.
