I did post about the new Technical Refresh that I installed last week. I only got time over the weekend to check out if there are any additional features. The main new feature is that, now you can create a Blog post out of the File->New menu. Some of the dialog boxes like the "Password Prompt" dialog has been cleaned up a little bit and has a correct caption now.
The support for Categories has been added, but then as of now Word is unable to retrieve categories from Typepad MetaApi provider.
Now you are able to insert SmartShapes/Shapes, but they do not get rendered into HTML on publishing. Not sure if this will be part of the feature set on release, but if it is, then it would be a very good reason to use Word for posting to your blog.
Also Word does not seem to support RSD (���Really Simple Discoverability���) as yet.
