For ultraportables, for example, I think 32GB priced at about $200-$250 would be enough for a move into the mainstream.  Not to dominate the mainstream, but to take some marketshare.  On the other hand, people who buy thin and lights and desktop replacements need more, and while some would be happy with 64GB, I don't think even there it will have as much of an inroad to the segment as 32GB on an ultraportable.  I tend to agree when it comes to desktops, 128GB will probably be a milestone if we get there fast enough.  Some people will be happy with 64 or even 32, though, namely people with a server, or who need a second hard drive for storage regardless.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ethyriel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 2nd 2008 4:22PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lexar introduces Crucial-branded SSDs]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/02/lexar-introduces-crucial-branded-ssds/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/02/lexar-introduces-crucial-branded-ssds/</guid><description><![CDATA[Agreed, I think ~$8 / GB moves it to more mainstream pricing.
