certain K series cpu's will be expensive yes, but there is talk going around that the i2500K will be $200+. So that might be the new i7-920 while the i2600k ($400+) might be the i7-950. But only time will tell, although I am interested in the AMD lineup as well. If things go right for AMD, we might just have Intel and AMD pricing their cpu's fairly low to outdo each other . at least one can hope so
