    I know Dell uses Samsung, but do we know if the 128GB model is a MLC or SLC version. With the 30% off you can get a loaded Dell with a SSD drive for about 1300$. ;)

    It's MLC. Samsung's SLC only goes up to 64GB. As an aside, I've heard that Lenovo's Samsung 64GB are now MLC - I hope Dell still uses MLC for 64GB.
