Does anyone have any first hand experience with them? I just bought one for my new 13" Air but I have not seen much info about them. I opted to save $140 and get the 240GB 3g SSD vs. the 240GB 6g SSD from OWC. I am hoping the savings was worth it, I had a hard enough time spending the $411 or 1/3 the cost of another air.

Knowing OWC, it will be spectacular. I have one of their SATA SSDs in my MacBook Pro and love it.

That is what I hear, I can't find anything negative about them (other than the price). I just wanted to see some real world reviews in the Air, but it is hard data to find. I always have buyers remorse, I just always 2nd guess myself, like I can't get over the fact I didn't go with the newest 6g SSD but **** $500+ for an SSD is just stupid IMO, $400 was bad enough. I justified it b/c I used AMEX points to buy it via amazon.
