The 2900Pro was at about $280 on newegg, great deal IMO.

I'm actually considering this one.

Right now really isn't a good time to buy IMO. The waiting game is boring, but at this point we're only a month away from tons of new hardware from DAAMIT, Intel and nVidia.

I see no point in R600Pro since RV670 is coming next month.
