Although I have yet to discover many of the concrete details, I do know this information:
Beale, Gregory K. New Testament Biblical Theology: Transformation of the Old Testament in the New. Grand Rapids: Baker Book House, Forthcoming in Fall 2011. In addition, the cost will be $58.59, and the cover will look like this:
I am anxious to see this publication. Beale is known for his intertextual work, so his approach as suggested in the title, should fill a void in NT Theologies.
Update:
In addition to the above-mentioned info on Beale's NT Theology I have also found the page count: 992, and the price listed on Amazon as $54.99, with a pre-buy special weighing in at $34.64!
Moreover, thanks to Daniel Doleys of Text, Community& Mission, for alerting me to a video of Beale on YouTube where he mentions his NT Theology at the 4:34-4:49 mark of the clip. check it out here:

Matt,
Thanks for posting this. I just saw a video with Beale for WTS on Youtube and he mentioned a NT theology he had written. I thought I was going crazy since I had not heard of it nor could I find it anywhere online. I can't wait!
I have the audio of a NT Theology class that Beale taught at Gordon-Conwell years ago, and I think he mentioned working on this book in that class (it's at least a decade old). Two things he'll combine, if I were to guess: OT in the NT and eschatology. Can't wait.
Thanks for the tip. I have Beale's and Carson's "Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament" and treasure it.
On the YouTube video clip of Beale I think he said the first hundred pages of his NT Theology review OT theology, which, of course, reinforces the idea that the NT and OT are incredibly woven together. I love how he emphasizes this.
