I ordered it, so I guess I'll see.
it is the same as last year's. I can confirm it. I order them every year so I can record the audio from them. there's no 2008 version as it's exactly the same as 2007. if anything, there are just subtle differences
I figured that was the case. But I went ahead and ordered one anyway. Oh well. It's nice to have an extra one on hand.
Yeah, that's what I figured, as well. Lame. But, I guess they don't really have anything new or different to add right now. At least next year they'll have Toy Story Mania and a new celebration.

The videos now change mostly only to reflect changes from the previous year, but it's still fun to get them and "for free", what can I say. The first 2 years they had these, in the early 90s, they cost about $10, but they were the most entertaining of them all. I usually order mine every December, because the updates on the videos for the current year are usually done in October. The Disney TV Christmas parade usually has a reminder about ordering one, and I always watch that.

Hey js3901, what do you use to record the audio?

I do my planning online. I haven't seen these dvd's yet. Are they good and do they just send them to you for free?

Yes, they're free. Just go to the official WDW site (http://disneyworld.disney.go.com) and click on the Free Vacation Planning DVD tab that is right above the castle.
