The device described in the article seems aimed at an integrated embedded solution. With a Ball Grid Array interface intended to be solder to a mainboard or other add on card is not probably intended for use by end users like us but more likely as primary or supplemental storage for handheld devices like phones or book readers and such.

How would you use something that small? Would you put Windows on it, or use it for caching?

Whatever you wanted to use it for I suppose.. Of course the 4 gig model wouldn't even be big enough for Windows 7 ;)

Agreed...that's my point. Using a tool like TierOne let's you use a small/inexpensive SSD to speed up the computer, rather than moving your OS over to the SSD.
