another Paizo
Paizo, definitely. The general quality of Paizo's works are so above-the-bar as to make most publishers look silly by comparison -- including many of the materials from WotC. Call this another seconding for Paizo (though technically this is probably more like a ninthing than a seconding, at this point). I don't know if I can pick a single product: they're all top quality. If a specific example of Paizo works is necessary for eligibility purposes, I guess I'll go with the Rise of the Runelords Adventure Path. The AP started up in 2007, and I'm pretty sure Part 1: Burnt Offerings was published in September or October.
Speaking of WotC, I have to agree that the company simply isn't eligible on the strength of anything realted to 4th Edition.

World Works Games - some really nice terrain came out in the period.
The Auld Grump - Cathedrae Noctis comes to mind (and table).
A third here for World Works Games.

But WotC only released 3.5 products in 2007, and they told us themselves that those were broken.
Seriously though, I don't think 4e is eligible until next year. Not that WotC didn't put out some nice products in 2007 or deserve a nomination anyway.
So long as a company put out product during the eligibility period, they are eligible to be nominated for Best Publisher, and Wizards of the Coast certainly qualifies!

Just reminder that a publisher needn't have submitted product for consideration to receive a fans' choice for best publisher nomination.
And you could always look over the list of nominees to get a starter list of publishers.
