There are in general two primary differences between 1/2 or 1/3 and 2/5...
1) The ratio of really bad players to players that have a clue is smaller. While it is common to only have one or two "skilled" players at a 1/2 table, you will see 2-5 on a 2/5 table.
2) You play with $5 chips instead of $1 chips, at least when posting the blinds. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
You typically will not switch between looking for solid players to looking for fish/soft spots until you reach 10/20 NL.

arent all low limit NL games played with $5 chips.

Thats why location is important. 1/2 or 1/3 games in Los Angeles are $1 chip games. Yellow ($5) games start at 2/3 blinds and above. 10/20 NL are played with brown $10 chips.
Because of buy in caps a 2/5 in Vegas will play far tougher than a 2/3 or 3/5 game in LA.
