Where to stay

Perhaps before diving into what to do, I should have said something about options on where to stay...

In the luxury range ($250 and up) you have a few options (check out one of the links on the left for actual rates). In Pudong, there's the new SWFC or the Grand Hyatt in the Jin Mao - not sure it still is, but it's claim to fame was the world's highest hotel atrium. Reminds me a little of the Death Star.

Around People's Square is the JW Marriott.

And at the Shanghai Center (Nanjing Xi Lu, not far from the Jing An Temple) is the Ritz Carlton. Around $150 you can find some pretty good hotels around XuJiaHui - I tend to end up at the Regal on Hengshan, but watch out for the $25 breakfast!
