Vinyl or wait for the new stuff??

I was wondering whether to dive into the world of Vinyl or wait for the new format to settle. You see, I have not listened to vinyl for more than 20 years now. I have all rated A equipment and cables and good collection of Audiophile and not so Audiophile CD. Recently I have been thinking of taking a dive into the world of Vinyl. However, knowing myself, I will not be satisfied unless I get some highend stuff which will cost me some serious amount of money. Not to mention that I have to start my collection of software. So my question here for you guys who want to help. Shall I make the move or just wait for the SACD/DVDA ? your input would be much appreciated.

I was in your shoes a year ago
I had a good digital fronend but wasn't there yet

I went two routes - a mid priced dvd-a
mostly for my movies and a few dvd-as
it was compariable or slightly less resolving to my redbook on the same material

then I went with a Nottingham spacedeck
a whoile world of difference and more musicality
opened up everything

now it's mostly vinyl at home and cd's at work and in car

if you like older music (sorry I'm in a rush and didn't read the whole thread)
take the plunge, you will thank yourself immensely
