Thanks, Folks. Amazon just informed me it will be delivered this Friday. Our office is closed then, but I will be at work anyway. Maybe I'll get lucky and catch the UPS guy on his rounds.

I currently shoot with a 7D, which I'll be keeping. But I too am looking forward to cleaner high ISO shots. With some careful exposure and some post processing, I can get usable 3200 ISO shots from the 7D, but I've seen usable shots at 12800 ISO from the 6D. I have Photoshop CS6.
