update
regarding comment below, yes, installed vs 2010 sp1 beta, here problems got:
i couldn't install visual studio sdk - fixed - found there newer version vs2010sp1beta didn't realize @ first.
i not install phone developer sdk - fixed unrelated - contacted @scottgu , said test scenario, downloaded again , worked charm
few issues resharper or (can't remember exactly, minor sure) - fixed - got recent build of resharper.
if leads question "should install it?", i'd say, if need of new features in (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg442059.aspx listing), install it. it's ok. if not, wait rtm.
btw,
if want discuss specific sp1 issues instead of uninstall, no problem in :)
