From what is known today.......

No.

>2) offer Vb.Net developers the Generics/Templates of C#
>2004?

Yes, it would seems so:
"For the more advanced Visual Basic developer, language enhancements
include support for operator overloading, unsigned data types, and
partial types. In addition, developers using Visual Basic will have
access to the CLR implementation of generics that promote code reuse
across a variety of data types."
