Randolph,
I wrote several years ago that Finale had become subscriptionware...I was
pooh-pooed at the time but stand by my statement.
We SHOULD expect another updater given all the documented and yet-unresolved
issues with 2007, but perhaps experience tells us otherwise.
The answer to this question would perhaps be revealing: Given that a "new" version
appears some time between July and September, what was the LATEST date anyone can remember at which
an updater for an "old" (then-current) version appeared? I honestly don't know.

Subject: [Finale] should we expect another upgrade?
Since this seems to be a slow day on the Finale list, I thought I'd
throw out a question to the group.
Should we expect another upgrade to Finale 2007 before Finale 2008 comes at us?
I know most of us want one that fixes some long term bugs, but can we
reasonably expect one to be offered?
I feel that I've paid for too many new versions hoping that old bugs
would finally be resolved. With 2007, there are also a lot of new
bugs and the three upgrades haven't done anything to fix them.
I'm worried that Finale 2008 will repeat this sorry cycle.
Would a letter-writing campaign help? One where we emphatically ask
that bug fixes be the top priority?
