For anyone hoping a for a pricedrop of Cypress parts soon. the Distributor price for one HD5850 is currently €224.40, excluding 20% VAT, I can't see Fermi pushing this price down anytime soon and this should be an indication of it's price after launch.
edit:
Richard Huddy commented on Fermi's die size saying it's nearly 50% bigger then Cypress and should beat it.
So again, the "surprising Die Size" rumours have been heard since May by types like Fudo and Theo, who simply write whatever nvPR tells them, even though it's false.
