Hi David,

(Un)fortunately, I am afraid you are right: I have just tested the above 
  expressions on one of our system with Mathematica 7.0 for Windows 
(32-bit Windows XP SP3) and none of the resulting plots after evaluation 
  display any tooltip when the mouse hovers over the graph. (The 
tooltips are shown just fine with 6.0.3 on 64-bit Mac OS X 1.5.5.)

Best regards,
