buying park passes now for 2010

[tink1969]

If I were to buy 7-day WDW park passes now, (to take advantage of the dollar) how long are they good for? We aren't going until November 2009.
Isn't it that you have 14 days from the first day you use a pass? (or something like that) Same thing with the dining plan....I'd love to buy that
now too.
We will be staying at our Disney vacation home so I have to buy these tickets separate and not in a Disney vacation package. With the dollar almost at par and looking like it will get there, I'd like to buy now.
What do you all think?

If you purchase your tickets now, the first day can be in 2010 and they are good for 14 days after the first day of use unless you purchase non-expiration tickets.

If you stay on-site at Disney, you have the opportunity to book the Disney Dining plans. From my understanding, it is only available to Disney on-site guests.
