Can anyone direct me to a link or source that outlines either in general or in detail reasons to change your connection string from SQLNCLI to SQLNCLI10 when upgrading from SQL Server 2005 to 2008?

Below given aritcle on Microsoft SQLNCli team blog describes the differences between SQL Native Client and SQL Native Client 10.
