Please take a look at:

It has been a long time coming, but Borland have confirmed they are
still working on a future BCB <g>

That depends on what you are doing with the product.
For instance, I could not work with BCB4's level of support for the ISO
C++ Standard, and our programs are now so large we rely on patches only
available for the BCB6 linker.

Generally you are looking at an incremental upgrade (in terms of
features) rather than a big leap, but from BCB4 I would say it could be
worth it.
I hear a lot of NG customers that are still working with BCB5, and that
upgrade is less clear.  I believe it is still worth it, but not as
pressing.  We upgraded from 5->6 around 9 months after the release, and
it was another 5 or 6 months before we were convinced we had value from
it, but yes we believe it has proved its worth for us.
