It was only a few months ago that nvidia fans were singing from the same songbook.
AMD were as quiet as a mouse before the 4 series launch and it's exactly the same here except for the hardspell leaks and Coolaler but they were silenced pretty damn fast. Not a peep out of them since.
Nehalem hasn't been paper launched for no reason. Yes it looks good but AMD don't need to take the performance crown they can do it with price just like HD4870 has done.
The 48xx series was a new architecture, Deneb is just a shrink with some extra cache, so your Nvidia comparison is poor.
