Well, according to this new site, which is supposed to be a front for ATi's
marketing department, they are encouraging users of the 8800GTX to trade in
their cards for R600 on *January 22*. http://level505.com/

I've got a feeling level505 will go down in infamy.
Or.... by some stretch of probability, their site could turn out to be
completely legitimate.

Either way, they are getting a ton of traffic and ad money ;)

Not really. Competition is good for the consumer. I was hoping that
availability of the R600 would drive 8800-series prices down to my
'comfort-level' :-) :-)

That'd be quite a jump. 7800GTX SLI to 8800GTX SLI :o)
