Oy vey.
Must be great fun in the ASUS marketing offices right now, throwing paper airplanes at each other while the competition paper launches board after board with nothing hitting the resale channels. High-fives all around and a great time had, I'm sure.
It makes perfect sense: why release your non-SLI product when you've got the market to yourself and can subsequently charge an arm and a leg for an A8N-SLI? Yes, Gigabyte has started to release their low-end board but good luck finding it on Newegg or most other sites....AMD must be less than thrilled that Intel's had PCIe to itself lo these many months.
MSI? DFI? Abit? Any of those guys plan to release nforce4 or VIA K8T890 boards soon? There've been plenty of notices on their websites but precious little PCB to back it up. I wonder if that Commodore64 I've got in the closet can be modded to fit a 6600GT.... </end rant>
