Using Windows Vista RC1, build 5600, Adobe 8.0 does not associate properly.
Clicking on a .pdf doc brings up the "open with" dialog.
If you try to associate with AcroRd32.exe, it won't.

If you drop the .pdf doc onto the Reader 8.0 logo, it opens properly.
The association is set properly in the registry.

The results are identical whether you run it in compatibility mode for WinXP SP2, or not.

I did submit this as a bug report.

Waiting for 8.01...
