Office 2008 for Mac confirmed for 2007
There is the press release here:

For more than two decades, Microsoft has been committed to delivering
quality and innovation on the Macintosh platform while retaining
unparalleled compatibility with PCs,

said Roz Ho, general manager of the
Mac BU at Microsoft. "Office 2008 is, by far, the most comprehensive,
Mac-complementary productivity suite we've developed to date.

Quote:
Office 2008 for Mac shares a new graphics engine with Office for
Windows(R). Office Art 2.0 provides users with the ability to add
professionally designed graphics with a simple click of a button. Like the
2007 Microsoft Office system and its new user interface (UI) with the
Ribbon, Office 2008 has its own new UI that introduces Elements Gallery, a
feature that emphasizes discoverability and gives users quick access to
tools and Mac- specific features within applications in a visually
appealing, simple way. Both features leverage Mac OS capabilities to retain
a Mac-like look and feel users are familiar with while taking advantage of
new technologies.


Quote:
Current products include Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac, a productivity
suite that includes the e-mail application and personal information manager
Entourage 2004, Word 2004, Excel 2004, PowerPoint 2004 and Messenger for
Mac 6.0. More information about the Mac BU and Microsoft Macintosh products
is available at http://www.microsoft.com/mac .


These are just like Office 200 really, and I somehow think this wont be like office 2007, but maybe a corss with it between 2003. I really think more work will have gone in to office 2007, whcih is quite amazing, that with Offcie for Mac 2008! Lets just wait and see though...

The company's Mac Business Unit said in September that it was past the halfway mark in completing the next version of Office for Mac. Microsoft's current version of the software suite, Office 2004 for Macintosh, was released May 19, 2004.
