I purchased these wheels today actually from Velo Mine after reading on here that they are a good shop. I contacted them and they are going to true and tension these before they ship. Take a look:

Velocity Deep V Black 36 Hole Wheelset Shimano 105 Hubs [0072774668847] - $219.00 Velomine.com : Worldwide Bicycle Shop, fixed gear track bike wheelsets campagnolo super record vintage bike

Those appear to be a solid choice --- they have Ultegra hub wheels too for a little more -- I was wondering if Shimano even made component hubs anymore with the popularity of the pre-built wheels
