The price drops mean that the 40GB SSD will now cost $99 (£78 inc VAT), the 80GB will cost $199 (£155 inc VAT) and the 160GB model will cost $415 (£323 inc VAT). The new 120GB drive will retail for $249 (£194 inc VAT), making it the best value of the bunch at $2.08/£1.61-per-gigabyte.

 

I think I will hold off till early next year to see what the new generation of SSD's bring to the table apart from hopefully better price per GB. I admit it is tempting to enter the SSD game but do I have the will power to hold off into the first quarter of 2011? Or should I jump in before the VAT rise comes into effect after Christmas? :hmm:
