Is anyone excited about the 40GB Kingston SSD

How about TRIM support for these drives? Intel has brought TRIM back via a recent firmware update which should mean that this drive will get it too, considering that it is practically just a re-badged Intel X25-X. But according to Kingston reps, this is a no no:
Without TRIM, the already meager write performance will take more beating as the drive is used. Perhaps one should wait for the X25-X (price?) since that will likely have full support.

Thank you for your interest in Kingston Technology.
Kingston's Solid State Drives do not support any firmware for TRIM commands.
