I know it's still in CTP, but is Visual Studio 2010 stable enough for everyday use? Are there any gotchas to watch out for, like .sln conversions that aren't backward-compatible with VS2008?

A: 

Not sure, but I was under the impression that it expires very soon (like, this month).

there is a patch from Microsoft to avoid that ;)

If by patch you mean instructions to set the system date back in time on the VPC image and to disable automatic synchronization of the VPC's date/time with the host's (instructions at http://blogs.msdn.com/virtual_pc_guy/archive/2007/11/28/disabling-time-synchronization-under-virtual-pc-2007.aspx).

I can say that the Team Editions - Architect and Test - are definitely not. That's not to say that they don't look great - but in a very good demo given by Mickey Goussett, they crashed or had some significant problems multiple times (particularly in the test reproducing features and the architect diagrams).

Play with it, but I wouldn't recommend it for production code.
