2008 Year of SSD?

One of the side attractions at the recent CES was the various solid state drives (SSDs) on display, with some exhibitors predicting 250GB units by the end of this year.

Among those on display were SanDisk's 64GB 2.5-inch SSD and 64GB and 72GB 1.8-inch SSD and A-Data's 128GB SATA RAID SSD. Both Ritech and Samsung also announced their 128GB drives in the same format. BitMicro took the stage with prototype 832GB 2.5-inch SATA II SSD units.

For notebooks such as the Asus Eee PC which uses SSDs instead of hard drives, this is definitely good news. Can't wait to see what the configuration for the Eee PC will be come Christmas 2008. :)
