Sorry, Blake, I should have explained more fully. Today I received a forwarded email attributed to Paul Gudonis, President and Steve Chism, Senior Director of Programs, FIRST. An excerpt from that email says:

"Since FIRST is actively exploring the use of other robotics platforms of similar scale for the FIRST Tech Challenge for future seasons, new teams for the Fall 2007 Season need to recognize that the platform that they purchase now is unlikely to be utilized in future competitions."

This implies a very strong likelihood of moving away from the Vex platform so I was wondering if anyone knew why.
