    The Dell's with 32GB Solid State Drives were announced last month, any idea on release dates?

    They are listed by Dabs, a big UK retailer, so they can't be far away. Samsung doesn't normally announce products until they are starting production. Note that this particular model has a PATA connection.

    They're listed already, but just scarce and expensive, if you really want one, you'd have to dig around.

    There are already some users here whom have purchased SSD drives for a few thousand.

    I see those, but what about Dell including them with their laptops?
    I think its the D630 and D830, but the SSD isn't listed as an option (yet?)
