Price is the main problem, performance is the other.
Performance wise, AMD is kicking it good with the Athlon 64's (FX's), but up until the 3200+, seems like AMD is struggling to push the clocks higher...
Even though the AMD64's, for the 'consumers', are around, they are ment only for those who are phreaks, price is simply way too high.
As for waiting, go figure, you might never know what AMD has up its sleeve... maybe they want to cash in a bit on the hype, then start competing, and having 64-bit computing go mainstream, sticking it to Intel...
