As you might know Microsoft have recently revealed two new BizTalk 2009 editions for Independent Software Vendors (ISVs). Here are more details about them from the Microsoft World Wide Partner Conference 2009 two weeks ago (July 13th 2009):
ENTERPRISE RUNTIME EDITION
- Only used with of unified ISV solution
- Unlimited CPUs, limited to 5 BizTalk applications
- Includes all capabilities, adapters and accelerators
- Supports scale out/failover, multi-server configuration with multiple message boxes
STANDARD RUNTIME EDITION
- Only used to embed into ISV application and interoperate with up to 2 additional external systems
- Includes all capabilities, adapters and accelerators
- Limited to 2 CPUs on single server and 1 BizTalk Applications
- Single server with single message box, no failover
These two new editions add to the existing six editions: Enterprise Edition, Standard Edition, Branch Edition, Developer Edition, RFID Enterprise, and the BizTalk Adapter Pack.
The BizTalk editions page hasn’t been updated yet and the pricing hasn’t been revealed for the two new ones but information should be out soon.

I wrote a post on the subject yesterday and tried to contact MS but the response was minimal to say the least. So I was wondering were you got the information.
Mikael,
The details are from the presentation on BizTalk at the World Wide Partner Conference 2009 (WPC09) to which a member of my team attended.
