Should you use type inference in C# (var) ?

Dare Obasanjo complains about Resharper 4.0's recommendation to use implicitly typed locals (i.e. var someVariable = SomeMethod(); rather than SomeType someVariable = SomeMethod();)
It is a small issue and I would probably wouldn't comment about it except I hear some of the same complaints from members in our team.
