You could try playing a different type of campaign. We
got bored with the normal shadowrunner type campaigns
and started trying different aspects of the SR world.
Examples:

Work for the Ucas or some other government in one of
their special ops depts.

Play researchers for a university- you still get to
break in and blow things up everyonce in a while, and
you can go into different parts of the world.

Explore the semi-legit with a private
investigator/security firm,

Be agents of a dragon - Draco Foundation or other. As
a Gm I loved this one. You can do just about anything
to your Pc's and you rarely have to explain yourself.

Piracy or smuggling

Be specialists in one thing- like Vampire slayers :)

Wandering Hero's- This was our most recent
campaign-Give the PC a vision of something horrible,
They must try to stop it from occuring. Where do they
get the visions etc.. is up to you.

These are a few of the things we tried. I hope it
helps.
