LD - excellent work. How did you create the phenomes? Did you use the morph tool in P7 or altered the objs in another package?
Unfortunately none of P7's features were compelling enough to upgrade (although I am very interested to see the IBL now that HDRs are supported). I use one of the big-three apps and convert Poser characters using a script which maintains the morphs. It's alot more work but geometry doesn't squish / blow out when deformed; hair and cloth are cachable and the rendering hundreds of thousands of polys is super fast (one Mil 3 character with SSS, ray tracing and moderately high sample rates takes about 30 seconds for a full body shot and about a minute using a face cam).
