Not Totally disagreeing with the Prices will drop - Just that it is not a given and how much is a good question. I'm a fan of BUY NOW and enjoy, and do not cry over spilled beer if the prices drops.
Will probably see some good sales during the back-to-school time frame and for the Xmas time.
Took a look and prices have dropped about 50 ->75 for the 128 gig SSds, Thats for the poorer ones, and ones on sale, or with a MIR. But this is not true for all.
Example (Newegg);
Bought my Patriot Torqx 128 gig for $340 (Sept 09), currently at $364
My Intel 80 Gig was $240 (Oct 09) On sale from about $340, current price = $220 - BUT they threw in an EXcellent Case ($120) for $20.
Another Case in point of Buyer Beware -
I bought a DANE-Elec 80 Gig SSD About $130 after MIR). Advertized as Mainstream Intel - They "forgot" to indicate (When it was Mainstream) and that it was the OUTDATED G1 which does not support win 7 trim cmd. Great price even for the G1, But would not have bought if I had done my homework, or they had listed the model Nr. Stuck it in my older "for work" laptop. My better lappy has the Torqx in it.
