Believe me Praveen, there is no change at all. Not even a single page.

Btw, you can also check out the content of the book on Amazon, and if available probably you can have a preview as well and compare it with Kaplan 800.

Btw, I think you already have so many books, that you may not need Kaplan 800. My two cents:
1. Kaplan 800 has good verbal strategy, but still Manhattan SC is better and very detailed. I liked K800 for CRs, but then you have CR bible.
2. Kaplan 800 doesn't have much of Quants strategy, and since you are planning to buy so many other quant books, I think those should be sufficient.
3. In Kaplan 800, level of questions not equivalent to 800 level. Better concentrate on GMATPrep questions for that.

Anyway, overall Kaplan 800 is a very good book, a good supplement for practice and have good questions to practice on.
