I saw some of these at a Circuit City near me the other day. Thought about picking one up, even if they were at regular price ($500? Didn't price check), but in the end I think waiting for the Dual Shock 3 will be the right decision. MGS4 isn't all that big of an incenctive for me, I've never really gotten into the series.
Newegg shipping of $13.69 saves a decent amount on the tax that would be $41.25, though...
