Just ordered a GeForce GTX 260 896M.

Price was to good to pass up.

I'll just drop the 8800 GTX in the second box.

Wow...that really is a good deal.
I live in South Africa so the money conversion = +- R2000. Normally those sell for R4300-R500
(proof from our two really good dealers: http://www.sybaritic.co.za/store/product_info.php?products_id=16121 http://www.take2.co.za/electronics-asus-nvidia-geforce-gtx-260-top-896mb-pci-e-3952678.html )
Going to try order one of those for my self too.

In comparison to the GTX 280 it wasn't worth 2x the price. From the bench mark reviews I have read 6-10 extra FPS wasn't worth the price to me.
