Capacity of DB

Hi,
We have an old version (well one year) of MSDE in which all databases are
limited to a capacity of 2 gig (per database). If have heard that there might
be a new version of MSDE in which the Databases capacity would be at 8 gig
(per database).
My question is : Is this a fact or a rumor. And if it is true that the newer
version of MSDE gives the posibility to have 8 gig databases. What is the
version of MSDE that gives such a capacity for batabases.
Thanks for your help

SQL Express is based on SQL 2005 and is a replacement for MSDE. It will be
limited to 4gb per database and should be released some time late this
summer.
MSDE 2000 is limited to 2gb per database.
