Why is it difficult to find good selections for the Athlon 64 X2 socket 939 processors? For example: Newegg only has 3 and they are all X2 4600+.

I have a socket 939 motherboard right now and I'm finding my A64 3500+ to be a bit slow. I am confused on what to do, cause it will cost alot to upgrade to AM2 or LGA775 (for C2D). I would have to replace the RAM, motherboard, and processor. Should I get the X2 4600+ or what should I do? Will AM2 and C2D be short-lived (should I wait)?
