You don't have to do anything. There are a lot of people - for example - who still use Photoshop 6 or 7, because they haven't seen enough of an improvement in recent versions to justify upgrading.

And let's be honest, iWork '06 is pretty crap. I wouldn't expect anyone who aleady owns '05 to shell out £60 so they can do 3D graphs in Keynote (which is about the only new feature...ok, maybe a few more )

And iLife...well, in all my life I have never seen a package that is more value for money than iLife. It blows my mind they aren't charging hundreds of dollars for it.

It is frustrating to always *feel* like you're behind because they bring out new stuff so fast, but it's just a phychological thing. There was nothing wrong with your iLife/iWork yesterday, so there's no reason why you should feel any different today.
