Why would you say that when all that Oracle has announced is that
Solaris 11 will be released in 2011?

I heard a rumour a few months ago that the next update to Solaris 10 would
be labelled 09/10. Regardless of releasing Solaris 11 next year, we are
well overdue for an update, and an update 9 seems likely before S11 is
released.
