You can grab those for $93+$10 ($103 + shipping) for a 32gb SSD.

Not perfect, not ideal for people with more money then sense... But it works.

As apposed to say $170-$400 you find a 32gb SSD for.



P.S. Deleting my thread about wanting my laptop, tisk tisk ;p

What's its read/write speed? I am buying a 180X USB flash drive I think it would be faster.

It's read/write times are not going to be the best money can buy, however; It would be considerably faster (if you shopped around for CF) then a conventional hard drive.
