2 the OP: AM3+ is due to arrive at the e3, you would probably need a bigger budget though, therefore AM3 is ok for another 12-18 Month, and you can still upgrade the CPU.
Well, if you can wait a few weeks for the AM3+ mobos to arrive, pick one of those. They're downward compatible and accept AM3 cpus, which should see another drop in price.
