I'm not saying they won't be getting them eventually, it simply has not been announced as part of the 2008 upgrades. Hence the "Midlife" Upgrades for the 764s...
Actually, the DL press release for the flat seats mentioned that there would be a lie-flat option in the 767s.

I think the bigger reason you are seeing midlife upgrades is that cheaper upgrades are all DL can realistically do while in Ch. 11 without raising the ire of creditors.
