I've actually read several places that Nvidia is having some serious engineering troubles with the new series of cards. It could just be the usual slander that gets tossed back and forth between the two companies, but it sounds like they might be pulling an AMD (with respect to the processor fiasco that happen a lil while back).
I'll post the articles if I can find them. Shame too, I personally have always bought their products.
Yeah... Until nVidia releases it next year + give or take a few months. They're probably scared like shit right now fearing anything they release immediately in an attempt to counter the HD 5xxx series will be a failure. They can still come up with a good-looking excuse though: it takes a while to develop GPUs.
Too bad though. When nVidia releases their GT300 cards they'll be ambushed again by the HD 6xxx cards, and then they'll be trounced again.
ATI has got the game now... and when nVidia finally does catch up and surpass, ATI will just cut there price $100 making them the best card for the price... win win on ATIs (and consumers) front... they have done it before and they will do it again.
"I'm moving to a small studio and for some reason the cable connection is in an awkward place and I need a way to transmit HD quality video and audio no more than 20 feet away. What is the best wireless HDMI transmitter / receiver for this situation? Thanks!"

"ATI Radeon HD 5970: world's fastest graphics card confirmed"
..until nVidia releases it's new flagship graphics card.
next year *sigh*
ATI Christmas eat your hearts out :/
IF nVidia decides to ever release Fermi.
With the solid delay Fermi has, it may almost be AMD that will release a faster card before...
M.

Signs are it will be the fastest graphics card until ATI release a faster one.
