Anyone know when a new version of iWork is usually released?

Seems odd that it's late September/basically October and it hasn't even gone to 9.1 yet

I skipped '09 because I was hoping for iPhone integration and it wasn't there. The '08 version of Pages and Keynote are working fine for my needs, and has been one of the best value/performance purchases I have ever made as a school student. I'm looking to jump to Snow Leopard, iWork & iLife '10 in one big jump.

I hope for iWork '10 around January. iWork is incredible, but some features for writing technical documents are desperately needed to get rid of OpenOffice.org. It is impossible to simply add labels to images/tables/charts, auto-numbering them and having table of them. I would also welcome built-in support for bibliography and formulas not having to buy EndNote and MathType separately.
