Lightwave 3D Trial?

Anybody know where to find it?

I've damn near scoured the webnet trying to find a downloadable trial of Lightwave 3D, only to have turned up nothing. Download.com has a 7.x demo, but it leads to an invalid mirror site that's apparently gone, and for nearly 6 months now, Newtek's own website has said "Product update in progress. Please check back later."
Erg. I'm frustrated. I just wanna get my hands on it and start making some new EVN ships from my warped imagination. Anybody know where I can get some help with this?
