If you read the eq2forums you probably would have seen Calthine's Fan Faire report yesterday:

Projects in Development:
WARNING: some of these projects are just in the initial phase of development. We were given no timelines. It was stated repeatedly that they are rushing nothing, as they'd rather get it right the first time. I would warn against expecting any of these projects in the near future; in fact I got the impression that on most of these projects we're looking at a year or more before we see them.
2. A new map system: we saw a very early prototype of a full screen map that would work in conjunction with a full-time mini-map. They'd like a search system which stores POI and other information outside the map, with a dynamic search that would allow what you're looking for to be displayed on demand instead of having a map full of colored dots. It was asked if it would work with EQ2 Maps, and the response was (I'm paraphrasing) "We'd like it to, we love EQ2 Maps!"
