If you understand the limitations for Prelude:
1/ early access feature not complete via update center
2/ stateless beans and JPA sessions inside Web Apps, (no ear, or
ejbmodule yet)
3/ no MDB, stateful yet
4/ did I say not complete?

yes, but you cannot use the wizards to create ejbs since they do not
work for a web app. The good new is that a JPA or a stateless bean is so
simple to create you do not need a wizard, just a java pojo wizard is
enough and you add annotations..

Some bug fixes.
The main stuff I LOVE in NetBeans 6.5 is JAX RS (JSR 311) RestFul
webservices from JPA wizards... Try it, you gonna love it...
JCP JAX RS expert group just approved the spec this week, so this is
brand new, *standard* and already supported with NetBeans 6.5 and works
like a charm with Prelude last time I tried.

If you install the Ajax jMaki plugin from the Update Center, you can
even generate a simple jMaki Javascript client to interact with your
restful services.

not sure. Anyone on the list tried that?

After writing the last sentence I went to admin console and tried to deploy EAR kind of application and looks like you right I can't do it! Before I was so sure that issue related to deploy Enterprise Application appears only inside Netbeans ;)
