I've also considered the Planet X, which is also a bit out of my price, but not a fan of the large carbon cross hatch design.
Then again the decals on the Super Pista are a little obnoxious too. If I get that, I'll need to find a way to fix that (eletrical tape
)

If you want to stay in your price range, go with the felt. I love mine. I came VERY close to buying a look 464 myself but decided to keep what I got for awhile.

Thanks for the suggestions guys, I've looked into the Look (haha pun) but it's slightly out of my price range, and I'm not super-crazy about it after staring at pics of it for 5 minutes straight.

Actually what size are you? My friend is selling a 52 vigorelli frame right now. If you are interested PM me and I'll get you the details, unless he already sold it.

is this gonna be ridden on the track or the street?
if it's for the track, i'd go with the felt or the look.
if it's for the street, i'd go with none of those.

Out of the 3 in the OP; I say TK2! 
If that "super pista" was a pista concept; I would've voted for bianchi... if you want a black aero bike you might as well get a leader

I like the Felt, but not so much the flashy 2010 graphics..
the Dolan is nice apart form the really ugly welds
@daspyrate unfortunately the frame will not see any velodrome action
but mashing all over the streets!now, time to negotiate a price for that 06 concept

and I already have a steel frame, I have a Mark V I ride now
there's nothing wrong with it really, but it's just too small for me, which is why I'm hunting for a new frame
so I decided to go aluminum after I rode on a friend's bike, (b/c although steel is real, aluminum is super light and fast and not even as harsh as people make it out to be!)
and I've been wanting a concept sooo bad, found out they're no longer made, ordered a super pista instead, and cancelled the order so I can buy an '06 pista concept!

i didn't see a choice for a republic bike, but i say republic bike.
they sell them at urban, which is like the coolest store ever. their shelves are made from unpainted plywood and used pallets, how awesome!
