I did not attend Code Rage 7 but I just learned that Ray Konopka is working on a set of FireMonkey tools. He has not published a date as to when this tool set will be available but I'm glad to hear he's working on one. Here is the Code Rage 7 video that loads at 36 minutes and 2 seconds right where the FireMonkey question gets asked:

XE4 Upgrade Decision
I'm currently using Delphi 2010 Professional and it's time to make that upgrade decision . . . again. The first decision I had to make was should I upgrade to Rad Studio XE4 or Delphi XE4. I've decided to upgrade to Delphi XE4.
Now I have to decide which version of Delphi XE4 should I go with, Professional Upgrade ($494.10) or the Enterprise Upgrade ($1,349.10). That's a difference of $855. So I decided to study the Delphi XE4 Feature Matrix.
The Professional version has three different Optional features:
1. Mobile Add-On Pack for Professional ($494.10)
2. FireDAC Client/Server Pack for Professional ($399.00)
3. Both of the above ($848.10)
For me, Chances are I'd have to purchase the above tems if I went with XE4 Professional. However, the above items are included in the Enterprise version of XE4. So that makes the difference a whopping $6.90.
With XE4 Enterprise you also get
