Have you checked mtbr.com and pinkbike?  Those are usually the best places to look.  As for waiting for winter to get a deal, don't count on it.  In some places bike season is just beginning.  However, prices do usually drop a little bit since it's time to get the new models in (except for Santa Cruz).
