That's just StarOffice with a shiny new name; other than that nothing's
changed as they charged for SO before. However, if you want the ODF
plugin, here's the minimum:

    * Oracle ODF Plug-in for Microsoft Office (Application User; Perpetual)
    * $9,000.00
    * Quantity: 100
    *
      First Year Support        $1,980.00

Total items: 1 $10,980.00

So it's actually $11K because first year support seems to be required;
you can't opt out of the support part on the order page.
