Here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=176239.msg1842040#msg1842040 fpgaminer achieved 400MH/s with XC7K325T part. It's 1k$ part. There's a chance that he will get closer to 1GH/s. Worth it?

A few hundred dollar video card will give you that kind of hash rate, obviously it will chew a lot more power but still.  FPGA chips seem overpriced, probably not enough competition.
