been updated there you should be able to get to Delphi 2007 downloads.
 

Sorry, Delphi Developer Downloads..dvd image files and 7zip files of Delphi.

cppbuilder, is that because you purchased Studio SA *after* Delphi 2007
was released, you do not qualify for Delphi 2007. you will have to wait for
BDS 2007/Highlander to get any Delphi bits.
Which makes accounting sense, or, in other words, no sense at all.

during the term of your SA. Delphi 2007 was released in March of 2007. If you
buy SA today, D2007's release occurred outside of your SA contract
period.
I could have this completely wrong, I don't follow the
finance/marketing/sales side of the fence very closely.

BDS 2006 is, or something like that. Studio level SA ought to include all
current products, IMO, now that they've been piece mealed out again.
Hope it doesn't seem that I am blaming you, just wanted to attribute my
info correctly.

going to be seriously annoyed. BCB2007 without Delphi 2007 is of no use to me.
So, if you bought D2007+SA on day D-1, you get BCB2007 as well. But if
you buy the same on day D+1, you don't. This was *not* well
communicated, and puts BCB2007 users back as second-class citizens all
over again.
Speaking of which, what news of a C++ product manager?

slight. We have to treat them as separate products since they were
released that way. There is some incentive to not do this again. (This
hasn't been formally decided yet though)

an upgrade from BDS2006 priced awfully high. They have to upgrade
to Delphi 2007 and C++ Builder 2007 separately then add Studio
level SA going forward to one of the upgrades.
Studio SA should really include current versions of covered products
or there should be a 'Studio' SKU available for purchase now
that includes Delphi 2007 and C++ Builder 2007 at less than
a full upgrade price for both.

I think should probably hassle Nick direct on this: The only reason I
didn't get the Delphi 2007 upgrade at Coderage was the endless c*ck*ps over
the discount codes for the UK "shop".
If I would thought for one picosecond that buying BCB2007 instead of D2007
would have dumped me in this hole...
