Chances of getting a GF FX for XMas
What do you guys think the chances of getting a GeForce FX in time for the holidays will be?? I've heard that a small shipment will arrive in December, before they are easily available on the market in February. My question is though, what stores are going to sell them in December? Would you have to order them directly from the manufacuter's website (PNY, Gainward, etc.) or is a place like Best Buy going to get a small shipment in?

It usually means that OEM manufacturers like Alienware, Voodoo and Falcon Northwest are getting the cards so that they can tought them in their uber gaming boxes. That they sell for buku bucks, which nVidia will have charged them in the first place.
The chances of you getting your hands on one is slim to nil.
