[Newegg] Newegg: Intel X25-M G2 SSD 80GB $259, 160GB $499, Free Shipping
First place I could find stocks of the new version of the X25-M. 160GB (SSDSA2MH160G2C1) version is in stock, 80GB (SSDSA2MH080G2C1) not yet.

160GB: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.as ... 6820167017
These are of course the quicker, cheaper new generation of the X25-M. Double the IOPS, future TRIM support through firmware upgrade, same or lower price per GB than the current competition. More preview info at http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/sh ... spx?i=3607
Pity my current G1 won't have TRIM support. I'll buy this G2 for another machine that needs the throughput, but I'm definitely giving my CPU+mobo money to AMD for my next build: if Intel won't support their current customers, I won't support Chipzilla much either.
Can anyone find an equivalent Canadian etailer with stock? Price competition is always welcome!
