When is the TRIM supposed to be available for the Intel SSD drives? I've heard about it for a while now but nothing has come out yet. And what exactly does it do? Everyone seems to say that it will make your SSD faster...is this true...

I dont think the idea is to make it faster. I think the idea is to help prevent it from getting slower. Last I saw was they said the TRIM enabled firmware would be released around the time of the public release of Windows 7.
MS says they will support TRIM with Win7. Is this functionality in the RTM release? If so, are there any drives that we can test it with? How do you determine if a drive is operating in TRIM mode?
If it is not in the RTM release, then will it be enabled with a hotfix? Will we have to wait for a full-on service pack? Presumably we'll need new firmware, but will we need other drivers? Hard-Drive level driver? Or will we need one for like, our ICH10R chipsets?
