You can finally find Nvidia's dual-GPU GTX 295 videocards in stock at pretty much any e-tailer who carries the part, but if you've waited this long, you might want to consider holding out a few more months. According to the latest rumblings, Nvidia plans to replace the flagship part with a dual GT300 card.
News and rumor site Fudzilla claims to have confirmed the rumor, but other details, including exactly when it will ship, remain sparse. If all goes to plan, Nvidia might have a demo ready in late Q4 2009 and start shipping in January 2010, but that remains to be seen.
The new card will apparently be DirectX 11 compatible and built to run parallel processing CUDA, DirectX compute, or OpenCL. It will also go toe-to-toe with AMD's upcoming dual RV870 card.

How come nVidia keeps making cards that are just 10-15% faster than ATI's best. Or not better at all. I think they should strat thinking about making the fastest GPU's possible for the cheapest price. I want to see them come out with a gpu that is 70% better than ATI's best that costs the same!

Keep making beefier cards. I just love to play a good game with maxed out graphics.
