I heard a rumor that they'll have 34mm stanchions (sp?) but the source isn't exactly credible.

Same forks as 2007. There may be some color differences on the Team/Race (or maybe not), but the World Cup is the same.

However, I would be willing to say that the SRAM pilots will be on Mission Control Boxxers sooner or later.
