Not just yet, I think. They only recently released the G5, Part Deux.

Just bought the Battlefield 2142 version of G5 and it's a great mouse imo. G7 I'm using is very neat too...I could become a Logitech fanboy

Re: Logitech G9 mouse announced...

The g9 is a great mouse. I like the new shape alot. For me at least it allows more precise control of the mouse. I have had the mx518, g5, g5ver 2 and also the mx700. It is hard to explain but the back of your palm does not rest on the back of the mouse as much as the kidney bean shaped mice did. It allows more precise control now that I do not have most of my hand resting on it. I have defiantly noticed a difference in half life 2 DM. TONS more head shots with the MAG. I have not experimented with the interchangeable bodies much but i like the fat body grip best so far. As for the weights system, I did use them with the other mice that had them but with this mouse I like it with no added weight. SO a happy customer here. my .02¢

I think the 15 got a redesign or something. I also have the blue G15. I went to the website looking for software a couple weeks ago and noticed the red one. I don't like the new one as much as the old one.

Does not look like you can close the LCD screen with the rev 2 version. And less macro keys.

Those are two of the things I recall from reading a review on the redesign of the keyboard.
