Special Media Edition will retail for $499.95 ($299.95 upgrade), which the Mac BU says reflects a $200 savings compared to if you were to buy the parts separately. Special Media Edition will come with all of the above, plus Microsoft Expression Media-a digital asset management suite that will help media-crazed users import, annotate, organize, archive, search, and distribute their media files. This package will go for $399.95, the same price as the current Office suite ($239.95 for an upgrade license). As expected, the core package of Office will include Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Entourage sporting both support for Automator and "full" Exchange support.
