I’m just waiting for the next generation of SSD drives to come on the market. $400 for the smaller 128 GB version still seems a bit steep for me, even with the price cuts to the unit as a whole. I don’t know though, if it’s going to be a long wait I may just break down and buy one (a sure way provoke an upgrade).

You got that right! My daughter got her first iPhone 2 months ago and I hesitated telling her about the upgrade but I think she knew 3 months ago when she went to a buyers meeting at Apple headquarters. She is a buyer in a university bookstore...

IMO, SSD as an upgrade isn’t worth it right now. They just don’t have the storage capacity to justify their cost. 7200 RPM drives are “ good enough” right now, especially since you can get them in 500GB varieties.
