First Oil Change?

So, I'm a bit "old school" when it comes to a new car break-in. I have always changed the oil and filter after the first 1,000 miles or so, then followed a regular schedule that is a bit more aggressive than the recommended scheduled maintenance. What do you guys think? Is it a good idea to do the initial oil change for a new BMW right after the break-in period? Reading posts here and on the E92 forum, it looks most owners prefer to change their oil well ahead of recommended schedules, but an early 1,000 mile oil change is debatable. Thoughts?
