Now, I may be a little slow on the uptake here but I have just found out that as of the 1st of April this year Microsoft released SharePoint Designer as a free download to all SharePoint customers.
This is great news for the businesses who have invested in SharePoint over the last few years and will save a great deal on licence fees I'm sure.

Microsoft SharePoint Designer is now available from http://www.microsoft.com/spd
