Sounds like you hit some luck. However, that $800 sounds a little high to me to replace the cat. Was that at a full service mechanic? You will usually get much better pricing on anything exhaust related at a shop that does nothing but exhaust work. However, since your in the emmisions warranty you should make the dealer do it.
