The R700 probably would be ready by then which is why these "leaks" happen, mostly because AMD has a lot to regain and has been working quite a while on the R700.
Ever since the lead up to the HD2900XT/XTX, did you seriously think Nvidia didn't have a contingency plan if that card had been the GTX/Ultra killer?
If anything Nvidia has had plenty of time to prepare, ATI is playing catch up.
