Available for Pre-order
Logos Bible Software is releasing a digital edition of the ESV Study Bible in a few weeks. It is currently available for a pre-order discount (see details at the above link) and will be released on September 15, 2010.
The MacArthur Study Bible English Standard Version is also available for pre-order at a discount and should be available in a few weeks. Phil Johnson describes the preview copy he’s seen:
It’s beautiful. Crossway printed two-color pages—black text and blue highlights. The maps, the layout, the paper, and the Smyth-sewn binding are all first class, making this the most durable and best-looking MacArthur Study Bible yet. The typefaces are especially easy on the eyes. I’m very pleased with it. I’ve been using the ESV for a couple of years, and I’m thrilled finally to have a copy with the MSB notes built in.
Update: David Elliot reminds me that Grace to You is going to be mailing free copies of the hardcover edition to people on the mailing list. It’s too late for you to sign up now to get a free MSB ESV, but you might want to sign up anyway, since they offer free resources every month.
Available Right Now
Crossway’s ESV Bible Atlas by John D. Currid and David P. Barrett. Derek Thomas says:
A good atlas needs to have magnificent and accurate maps, a comprehensive timeline sensitive to the nuances of historical geography and geospatial changes, and (these days) digital accessibility. The ESV Bible Atlas scores fully on all counts.

I've been looking at that bible atlas myself. I really wanted a MacArthur Study Bible, but I had just got a good deal on an ESV Study Bible, so I resisted. So many good resources!
