Hmmmm...Please help to clue me in. I can't seem to find any 590 video cards anywhere. Am I missing something. (I am pretty sure I am). Where have they all gone?

Ste\/e is probably stockpiling them to continue his BOINC reign...
They're around, just expensive and not common. Here's one: http://www.seaboom.com/scripts/produ.../3GD5&REFID=FR
Hmmm.... It looks like nVidia has stopped production of the 590. Guess they cannot compete with the new Radeon offerings.
Nope. That is in my opinion only, though. The AMD 7xxx are out now, but only in limited quantities. If you wait another 4 to 6 weeks, they will probably be available in larger quantity and more outlets, meaning the price will drop somewhat.
Also, NVIDIA's Kepler should be showing signs of life in the next while, so as stats begin to leak out, that will put pressure on the existing cards.
$750? At what point do they start advertising, "Buy a new Video card and we'll throw in a computer to run it."

I guess I should clarify my stance a little. Yes, the 590 spits out crazy credits, and could be "worth it" at that price. However, the next generation is close and so much more crunching power per watt, that I think it would be a little nuts to buy at 590 right now. Unless the next gen. is way too pricey when it comes out and/or you just don't want to wait (I understand that feeling!).
