I believe that you can select which card handles it in the new physx menu. Pretty sure I've seen a screenshot of it somewhere. So yeah, having the Ageia card continue handling it will be best for you so that your graphics performance doesn't take a hit.

There aren't that many, Cellfactor and a few other free games, Unreal Tournament 3 has a special map pack, and that last MoH game used a little bit of the physx capability but not much I don't think.

I'll haft to give those a whirl when I update my 9800 with the drivers.
