It's pretty clear at this point that there is still a mix of B3 and G0 in the supply chain, so however fast Newegg is spinning through their stock is IMHO irrelevant.
The only ways that I have found to guarantee a G0 are as follows:
1) Purchase from a local retail chain where you can inspect product codes yourself, ~$330 + tax. ETA Now, if available.
2) Pre-order with TankGuys for a reservation fee of $5 (can cancel), $299 + shipping. ETA August 6th.
3) Pre-order with ClubIT (by telephone only), currently $296 but charged at the site price at delivery (free ship). ETA August 1st.
I ordered from ClubIT ... assuming the price stays stable I'm getting a guaranteed G0 with their fastest shipping option for $10 less than Newegg's price. Now, fingers crossed that it heads out the door August 1st!

I just preordered a G0 Q6600 from ClubIT; no stock has yet been there of G0s.
Before I called I saw that their 'out of stock' status on the Q6600 had changed
to 'in stock' so I was hopeful they would now have received G0 chips for sale,
but they tell me that they have not yet had any G0s in, and that it could still be
anytime between now and early next month before they get G0s in.
But at least now I don't have to worry about shopping around trying to find
when it's in stock somewhere and playing the price / inventory roulette game
for another 2 weeks.
