Seems to be a shortage of this card nowadays. Does anyone know when manufacturers can roll out more units? Also, any online retailers that still claim that they carry this in their stock?

Don't forget 3 weeks later a cheaper more powerful card will pop out and make you feel like ***.

Considering it's more expensive than a few HD4850 (MSI $30 cheaper) and just as pricey as many of them, it's a tough sell unless you really need low power consumption and heat and don't mind a little less performance in more situations.

The 4850 is faster but uses a bit more power.

Sigh... getting something a few hours/days/weeks before something more awesome comes out is a fact of life :(

And yes OP, NewEgg and scan carry 'em. Say goodbye to that promised $100 launch SRP though! :P

Thanks guys! I'll probably save up for a higher-end card then, with all of this messy "low-priced" EPU supply & demand economics :P

I am still waiting for them to release a 1 gig version of this card. Hopefully sometime soon.
