...It consumes very little power, but I bet it consumes all of your money.

Sounds good

But they never mentioned a price on these new SSDs.

Would love to have a couple as external disks for carrying around information but I figure the cost for the first 6-12 months will be more like extortion. Cannot blame them though as they are the first to market with this size and specs.

Great!

Perhaps if these do well, and they can drive production costs down, we will see affordable large capacity desktop drives within a few years.

Think what it would be like never again to hear the 'CLICK CLICK WHIRR' sound of a dead hard drive.
