Same to me ... BV 7-40 is too big and my momentary BV8-32 has no Dolby Surround, no PUC, no motor stand etc..
The picture and sound quality of the BV8-32 is extraordinary, perfect job - but the design is not easy to get used to , simply not a classic B&O design like a BV7.
I'm missing all the other features of a BV7 , so my decision tends to change the level. 
I can't wait such a long time - I have to HDMI cables and only one port
!
