    I'm curious too about this.

    Hope OCZ doesn't pull a SF/Vertex 3?

    A little pricey seeing as I see 128 GB M4 for ~170-180 all the time...brand new.

    If it has the performance and reliability to match and hopefully exceed the M4's (and certainly above the V3's), then $20 or $30 MSRP (pre-launch) is effectively the same or lower than the shipping M4's.

    I would guess these will perform below the M4's and will soon enough be priced accordingly.

    Time will tell. ;)

    Yeah, I changed the title to what it was supposed to be :) Still not the best title ever, but sure beats a "!" :)

    I've changed the title. No idea why it changed like that.
