I was just on buy.com's website and noticed that the top Intel CPU's have almost been cut in half. May be a good time to build that HTPC that you have been wanting, or simply up your speed to play these HD movies.

AnyStream is having some DRM issues currently, Netflix is not available in HD for the time being.
Situations like this will always happen with AnyStream: streaming providers are continuously improving their countermeasures while we try to catch up, it's an ongoing cat-and-mouse game. Please be patient and don't flood our support or forum with requests, we are working on it 24/7 to get it resolved. Thank you.

I'm expecting the Q6600 to drop significantly by August (possibly sooner).

The dealer info list that I received in January, about the price reductions, didn't include the 6600. Perhaps that info will be updated soon.
I'm told Q3-Q4.
It's already dropped to ~$580 U.S. currently in Canada: http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=22211&vpn=BX80562Q6600&manufacture=Intel&promoid=1064
In the U.S., it's slightly cheaper:

I'm seeing the $266 price mentioned a lot:
