Was wondering with the new 8800 if I should wait till jan or feb to buy a new vid card, because the others will drop significantly.. Kinda looking at the $200 price range.

Prices are constantly dropping, but the $200 range cards should still be in the $150-190 range by that time period. You WILL save some money by waiting, but probably not a ton.

Personally, I'd shop around for a $200-250 card that has a killer rebate. Black Friday is a good time for such a thing.

Here are some PCI-E cards to consider:
eVGA 7900GS - $166 afer MIR
XFX 7900GT - $200 after MIR
Sapphire X1950 Pro - $200
