AGP vs PCI Banshee

Why are there so few AGP Banshee cards available at retail?
I was out in Cali last weekend interviewing and visited a Fry's.
Must have been 150-200 PCI Banshee's, but not a single AGP version.

I've also taken a look online. Heck, Guillemot and CL don't even
have retail AGP versions available yet. Is this a manufacturing
issue at the card level? Or just a serious marketing blunder?

(I did end up getting a Q3D Raven AGP from egghead.com)
