Man this will be tempting to skip nehalem and just get one of these till DDR3 and good nehalem mobos get cheaper. So if I get one of these it should hold me over till the 43nm shrink.

NCIX list them at about $618 if you do a search for the model number (available in 2-5 days). If you click on the link in the price reduction e-mail though it says "This product is no longer available". The equivalent Xeon X3370 is about $650.
