Sorry, brewman, but it looks like I have to disapoint you: It looks like you won't be getting Cinema 4DXL 7! Good news: You will get R8 XL bundle instead! (It looks like Maxon started shipping of R8 just now, and as you said, you just bought it, so you will get the free update, therefore my guess is, Maxon will be shipping only R8 from now) :-)
