Yes, but you can't buy them yet individually yet. Only the OEMs have them. Probably take another month or so before NewEgg gets 'em.

Yes, it should work in a MacBook. OS X isn't optimized for use on a flash drive, but it shouldn't have any problems.

You may want to check Newegg before you make such statements. They have 64 and 128GB 2.5" SSDs in both ATA and SATA.

Bulk transfer speeds and seek time are great; beyond the capabilities of rotating disks (at least those that you could stick in a laptop).
Here's a review of a 32GB SSD, showing 100MBps transfer (the best 2.5" laptop disks top out around 70MBps) and seek times in the 0.1ms range (probably even lower but most apps aren't designed to test flash drives... the best 2.5" laptop disks are about 10ms).

The OP asked about the new 64GB Samsung SATA II SSD. The only 64GB NewEgg has in stock is a Super Talent SSD which claims only around half the performance of the Samsung drive (60MB/s read vs. 120MB/s read and 45MB/s write vs. 100MB/s write).

I was thinking of using that 64gig for my main hd and a express 64 gig drive. Is 64 gigs the largest for express?
I would then have 128 gigs of storage 4 gigs of ram. That thing should be kicking fast maybe?

Can flash disks be partitioned as normal for Boot Camp?

I have yet to see an ExpressCard larger than 32GB actually for sale.
Yea, that'd be a nice machine.
