Next B1DE version will be available for VS2008.
But in the meanwhile, we have been doing some testing with VS2008 and B1DE 1.5 version can also work with VS2008.
In order to make it work you only have to manually copy VS templates from VS2005 program files folder to VS2008 folder.
Here you have a detailed list of the steps you need to do:
For C# wizards
1. Copy CSharp_B1AddOnWizard.ICO, CSharp_B1AddOnWizard.vsdir, CSharp_B1AddOnWizard.vsz from
...\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC#\CSharpProjects
to
...\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC#\CSharpProjects

2. Copy CSharp_B1... ico, vsdir, vsz files from
...\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC#\CSharpProjectItems
to
...\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC#\CSharpProjectItems

For Vb wizards
3. Copy Vb_B1... ico + vsdir + vsz files from
...\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VB\VBProjects
to
...\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VB\VBProjects

4. Copy Vb_B1... ico + vsdir + vsz files from
...\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VB\VBProjectItems\Local Project Items
to
...\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VB\VBProjectItems\Local Project Items
(You will maybe need to create the Local Project Items folder)

Once that done you can open VS2008, you will see when selecting "File -> New -> Project" 2 folders called "Visual Basic" and 2 folders called "Visual C#" (one contains all VS projects and the other one contains the B1 wizards).
You can then select B1 wizards, they should work without any change.

Please let us know any problem you may have by using the wizards with VS2008, this way we will be able to fix it for the next B1DE version.
