OWC intros new line of SSDs

[Trouble]

Personally, I think this is all lies and I think OWC should send me a 240 GB SSD to test and, umm, keep to make sure that they are honest about this "new line." Just trying to keep OWC from taking advantage of the customers. ()

How does this compare to the OWC 6G Extreme SSD ($70 more for the 240GB drive)?

In other words, why would I advise clients to buy the $549 Extreme?

Is there something compelling for the extra $70?

Wake me up when I can get the 480 GB model for $50.

So when are they going to offer it in a USB 3 external case?

So when are they going to offer it in a Centronics 50-pin SCSI case?

Maybe now they'll drop the price on the 3G SSD's.

Yeah, I know... not likely.

That would be nice.
