It does seem like Nintendo made a bad choice by revealing the 3DS before the new DSi XL was even released. I think it would have been best if they would have at least waited till E3.

what does everyone here think? Could it damage the sales of the DSi XL?

I don't think so at all. The majority of the potential audience for the DSi XL aren't even AWARE of a Nintendo 3DS coming out next year. Yes there was a quick blurb on CNN about it, but beyond that they don't know. Only us hardcore gamer types are going to know about this. 

Hmm...you have a point.
