Wizards has announced the lineup of 4e books and supplements for 2010 (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/drfe/20090814). January starts off with 4th Edition's exploration of the Underdark, as well as a new player-focused product, a 32-page book dedicated to playing dragonborn (with the next such book coming in June, for playing tieflings). Later in the year, DMs can expect location-focused books: 32 pages along with a poster map, suitable for dropping into any campaign. The first of these will be Hammerfast, spotlighting a dwarven town, and Vor Rukoth, an ancient (and quite possibly haunted) ruin.

If 2009 was the Year of 2's, then 2010 is the Year of 3's. March features Player's Handbook 3, bringing back psionics to 4th Edition. Monster Manual 3 follows in April and Dungeon Master's Guide 3 (including advice on epic-level play) in September.

Other sourcebooks for 2010 include Martial Power 2 in February, bringing further options for your fighters, rangers, rogues, and warlords. In April, The Plane Above takes players to the Astral Sea.They also announced the next campaign setting will be fan favorite Dark Sun.

As I was saying in the other thread. Great and interesting choice. I would have loved Dragonlance but I am their whore.
Dark sun is just a really interesting way to go.

I have mixed feelings. I run a weekly Dark Sun game at the moment. I feel this is an edition too late; 4th ed and Dark Sun are two things that I can't see fitting well together. I am glad that new players will be exposed to the setting, at the very least.
