Solid State drives

Has anyone either bought a MacBook / Pro with a Solid State drive or upgraded to one? What are some of the differences you notice compared to a standard drive? No noise- high performance- quicker? I see that they are now up to 256 GB, although the price is way too high, at least for me. If one is upgrading their standard drive in their Book to a SS drive, what is there to know? Is it the same as installing a standard drive? I wouldn't consider going below 320 GB right now, but maybe SS drives will push ahead as standard drives for Notebooks will be pushing 1 Tetrabyte soon.

SSD drive are 2.5" which is the same as notebook HDD
its just way too expensive and overrated for the average consumers.

I see some of this has already been noted in Andrew Pratt's post.
