2011 SSDs

[odditory]

Unless Crucial gets cost under control with a SF-2200 based offering in a reasonable timeframe (late Q1, early Q2), then sorry to say but 2011 is going to be the year of the Micron C400 and Intel G3. I say that because MSRP $525 for a 100GB Vertex3 Pro with the enterprise-class SF-2582 controller = no go for most people including those with RAID aspirations.

The mysterious absence of any SF-2200 based drives at CES doesn't bode well for a lower tier Vertex 3 offering. Obviously they're having problems with the lower end SF controller, its like SF-1200 all over again.
