I just booked for Jan 2009 yesterday, so maybe I can help you. You may book a "room only" reservation for 2009 to secure the room. I believe 500 days in advance is the earliest you may book. They will quote you peak rates for 2008, but will adjust room rates when the official package and room rates come out this summer. When the rates come out this summer, you may call and change your room only reservation to a package deal, and Disney will adjust the room rate to reflect 2009 pricing.
