I'm in the process of optimizing a website for a client that has 2 very strong keywords separated by a hyphen. Personally, I'm not a hyphen fan and at first i thought it wasn't a good choice, but that is more a matter of personal taste and practicality besides any uncertainty about what benefit you might get from having so many hyphens. The bottom line is that hyphens are treated by Google/Bing just like word separators, the don't certainly hurt and wont slow down your seo process, but they don't help.
