Baker Publishing Group has scheduled the release of Thomas Schreiner’s New Testament Theology: Magnifying God in Christ for April, 2008.
From Baker’s description:
While none of the New Testament documents claims to provide a “theology” on its own, Thomas Schreiner suggests that certain recurring themes emerge from the study of the whole. In this volume, he traces key themes as they appear throughout the New Testament canon, exploring the emphases that emerge from a detailed reading of the texts.

The book is priced at $44.99 from Baker, or $29.69 from Amazon.
