Just had them on the scales.

08 is at least quarter of a pound lighter :-)

Best of all, the new 08 frames come with some rear mech outer already installed (no fishing around trying to install it in the new swingarm).

Symon - I just dump my breakfast before I ride and smile as I think of the money I've saved on the '07 model

Well if your talking pounds over weight. 

I just saved myself £449 pounds on a Meta 5.5.2 07 over an 08.

Seriously first post, great site, helped me make the decision, ditch the Marin Alpine Trail for a French Bugger!
