The file formats are supposed to be the same, but Office 2008's OpenXML support had a few rough edges. When it was first released, there were reports of some content in OpenXML files not displaying correctly. I experienced this myself with a few DOCX files. In addition, PowerPoint Mobile couldn't open PPTX files created in PowerPoint 2008.

SP1 is supposed to fix a lot of these issues.
