you will upgrade to office 2007 shortly after some company that you MUST do business with upgrades to it and starts sending you documents in a format that you can't read
or when one of the businesses you work with upgrades and then complains becouse the document that you sent them in the old format doesn't look right when they read or print it with the new version

Office 2007 requirement

Seems unlikely. Anybody upgrading to Office 2007 would be in the minority, and they would bear the brunt of complaints about interoperability with everybody else. The only reason people would put up with this is because of compelling new features in the upgrade, but it doesn't seem like such features are there.
Therefore I think that the idea that Office 2007 is an inevitable part of the future, is overblown.
