GeForce3! It appears that the next generation chipset from NVIDIA will be named the GeForce3. If this story over at NVchips-fr is on the up and up.

According to the report, the pic appears to be real and some shops in Switzerland already have the card in their price list for around 500$. It also says that the GeForce3 will appear in stores around the end of February or beginning of March. Thanks for the tip Tanguy!
So who's going to order one
Update: I received word from a reliable source that CompUSA has the Guillemot 3D Prophet III logged in their system as SKU# 282126 with a retail price of $599. Hopefully this is a feature rich card (TV-Out, DVI, modified Blue Orb?) as Hercules products typically command a premium price. Keep in mind that the 3D Prophet II Ultra sells for $499 at CompUSA online.
Update II: I received a confirmation from a CompUSA Corporate Sales Manager that the SKU# for the GeForce3 is valid.
