Yes you can do "model first" development by creating your model first and then generating a schema from that model.

I have opend DevArt EntityDeveloper for sqlserver.
I don't see any 'model first' ...

Create Linq to sql model
Create Entity Framework model

Can you point me to see it?

Model First is not supported in Entity Developer yet.
We are working on this feature.

We have added the Model First support for Oracle, MySQL, and PostgreSQL databases.
Microsoft provides their own support for SQL Server DBMS, it is integrated into Visual Studio 2010 Release Candidate.
I have mentioned the tutorial describing Model First usage in this forum post:

I don't want microsoft, because i have see that if my model change i need to rebuild all database (the script will drop the Table).

So, if I add only 1 relationship between 2 class, then the script will drop
the Table.

Can Devart have software that "syncronize" the model with database (MySql, PosterSql)?

Any people that need to create a middle project (20-40 class) need
to be SURE that if the Model change, than the DB will change.

See DataObject.Net database:
when model change, than db 'will be upgraded' not Erased!

If you implement this, i think that EntiyFramework can be used
from VERY amouth of company.
