Anyone have the skinny on what the major differrence between InDesign 2 and InDesign CS are?

Worth the upgrade for a rank beginner with the program who will be using it to write a book? (see related post)
 
CS has alot of nice features that 2 doesn't have (I remember that much)...it's kinda hard to explain it though since I've been using CS only for the past 5 months or so...guess I forgot what 2 was like <G>.

For a book 2 might be good enough, but if you can swing it then go ahead and grab CS.

It might be easier for you to write everything beforehand in a Word Processor (Word, Simpletext, OpenOffice Writer, etc.) then import the text when you're ready to lay everything out. ID is more for putting all the pieces together than actual writing.

Adobe's site has a list of the new features:
