There should be some new LED lights coming down the pike as about six months ago a new better LED came out.  I think it's been delayed a bit because only in the last month or so have optics designed for it become available.  It's only an incremental improvement.  Nothing game changing.  It's just 20% or so more efficient and less expensive. 


The least expensive way to a lot of light on your bike is still the HID conversion.  The main requirement is DC power and there are HID 's for almost every bulb type now.  I see it as a no brainer because it's all of $40 to $50 and you two of them.  It's the least expensive path to better light.  The improvement is amazing.


Even though LED's have are getting better and better every year, I think that the HID helmet lights still have an edge for desert riding.  They just focus so much better.  For the woods though, it's a different requirement.  LED's do better there.
