Maybe test prep books and Kaplan courses and whatnot are already dealing with this, but it was news to me: http://************/j75hd (EDIT: OK... The direct link was really long so I made a tinyurl, but I guess SDN blocks them. Weird. So, go to http://www.ets.org/gre and look for the "significant changes" news item in the right-hand column.)
There's a major revision of the GRE general test, with no more specific introduction date than "autumn 2007". Among other things the verbal section will rely more on reasoning and reading comprehension and less on esoteric vocabulary, which is probably a big plus for almost everyone. But if you've been preparing for the *current* version of the GRE, you might want to hurry up and take it rather than hope that what you studied will be applicable to the new test.
The prep material available on the website is still all geared toward the current version of the test. Hopefully they'll have prep material available for the new test some time *before* they actually start administering it...
