I hate it...
Personally, I hate this change: before, you could easily browse a ton of events (and their details) with a glance at the sidebar as you used the arrow keys to move from event to event. Now I have to use Command-I and Escape to open and close windows as I move around.
...I love it
Frankly, I don't get what all the complaining is about. I've been using iCal for years for everything that I do; I track every event and appointment in it, have every birthday, anniversary, personal notable date, etc., in it as well. In short, there probably aren't a whole lot of people who use iCal _more_ than I do.
Creating and editing vs. browsing
Great, so it's better at creating and editing events (in your opinion). My complaint is about browsing existing events. In the old setup, it required zero effort to see the event details. In the new setup, I have to press Cmd-I for every single event just to see the details ...and then press Escape to close that window. Repeat ad infinitum.
BTW, this all relates to month view. Daily and weekly views are useless to me, as I have too many longer-term projects that I like to be able to see at a glance. -rob.
Creating and editing vs. browsing
While I prefer the old method of an event's details sticking around on the screen, there's a couple of shortcuts which make the new method more bearable:

If it helps, you can just hit command-I again to close (you don't need to move your fingers to escape) |
