management tools for sql 2005?

what tools are available to manage sql server 2005 (std version) databases if
you don't have a copy of SQL Server 2005? i.e. connecting to a remote sql
server 2005 system for development.

I don't know what third party tools have been announced yet but if you are
licensed to use SQL Server Standard Ed then you are licensed to install the
SQL Server Management Studio so I suggest you install it. Get it from
whoever manages the server or download it if you are an MSDN subscriber.
