From the back of the Player's Guide:
"Domains and more for twenty new deities comprising the core pantheon of the Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign Setting(TM)"
Maybe I didn't catch the announcement when the PC products were announced, but are we to assume that "Pathfinder Chronicles" is, in fact, the name of the setting?
On the Pathfinder product page there's also these new products:

So, indeed everything points to your assumption being correct...

Amazon scooped us and forced us to advance our announcement timeline. Check our press release page--we officially announced the name of our campaign setting today. :-)
Oh, and the 2nd Pathfinder Adventure Path.
And some modules.
And cards.
etc.
Enjoy!
What you really announced, Joshua, is that I am going to have a large Paizo bill from now on. ~sighs~ My poor, poor, poor wallet! (~grins~ Did I tell you it was a POOR wallet?)

*rubs hands together evilly*
Eeeeeeeeeeexcellent.
Why isn't all this stuff available now, dammit? You've already thought it up, why can't I buy it yet?
Waiting sucks.

You do know that these will be coming around just after Christmas and before my Tax return? How and I going to pay for all of this? A second job? A second MORGAGE? Yep, you are EVIL!!! Evil I tell you! Eeevvvviiiilllllll........!!!!!
This is an EXCELLENT 2008 release schedule, looking much better than W*TC's. But does this mean...
Maybe the gang at Paizo has some inside information about the whispered v4.x version of the worlds most popular role-playing game?

As nice as that might be (because I trust Paizo) that is not very likely.

We only know as much as everyone else knows, which is to say virtually nothing.
Besides, all the products we've announced are coming out in the first third of next year. Given that Wizards hasn't yet announced anything, we're pretty darn confident that folks will still be playing 3.5 in April!

Vic, Vic, Vic...I'm pretty darn sure that Paizo can publish 3.5 stuff AFTER 4.X comes out without a drop in profits.

Ask publishers what happened to their profits if they came out with a 3.0 product after 3.5 came out.

Dang You !!!!
I turned 60 on July 20th and was planning on retiring at the end of this year. Now I am going to have to work for another couple of years to afford all these nice new Paizo toys that I want...
Dang You All to the 666th Layer of the Abyss !!!!

Not to threadjack too much, but I'd imagine a 4e is going to be more like a 3.75. Take a look at Star Wars Saga edition for the kind of changes you'd expect to see in a new D&D adventure (espescially where it concerns skills, beginning HD, etc) and thus would easily be convertible between 3.5 and the new edition. Paizo could probably make the change almost seamlessly.
Although I'd like to point out there's still market for 2e stuff, just look at Hackmaster.
I think WoTC's stuff is better.
Just kidding. You've got my D&D dollar from here on out. So glad I cancelled all my pre-orders from WoTC when they killed your magazines. I pirate their books, look at them, and think, "wow, this wasn't worth the time to download, let alone they money to buy!"
Pathfinder looks fantastic.
