Besides the obvious fact that there's no sidebar in Windows 7, are there any differences in the way gadgets are put together? Anything I should look out for / resources I should read through?

Thanks!

MSDN covers the differences in gadgets in Vista and Windows 7.

I think primarily the issues you'll have to deal with are the IE 8 rendering engine and absence of the sidebar. They cover in the article how they still handle the System.Gadget.onDock and System.Gadget.onUndock to maintain backward compatibility.
