Just wait until January and buy your Q6600 at the best price you can. The prices are driven by demand and are unpredictable, but it is a fair bet demand is down after the Christmas rush so prices are down too.
Buying computer gear is ALWAYS a 'wished I'd waited' situation. Whatever you buy is cheaper in 3 months. But you want it before then, pay the premium and get the joy. I bought a 22" monitor 3 months ago, now $70 cheaper, but I wanted it then and have no regrets.

Hi. The pound value is not possible to predict, but the prices WILL drop if that is important.

new top of the line intels .. 1000$+ ... older hardware always gets cheaper for awhile but really its not dependent on the time of year on electronics and computer sales ..
