Help with crazy nVidia naming?!

I've always been an Radeon boy. What won me over was the simple names, and easy way to tell which card was best. However, in current discussions about nVidia cards I'm finding that I'm on the brink of looking like an idiot. Could anyone explain their relative powers to me?

Also, which is better, the 9800 or the 8800? I looked at Toms Hardware for benchmarking, and they seem pretty identical. And what's with the letters after the name? Ultra, GT, GTX, GTS, GX2, GTX+, e.t.c?!

Many thanks for any help!
