Coming down the pipe: OCZ's latest SSD iteration, the OCZ Summit Series SSD pushes MLC solid state technology to the next level with a larger 128mb buffer size and using Samsung's state of the art controller chipset and NAND flash modules (vs 64mb buffer and Infilinx controller used in the already admirably performing Vertex series.)

As we've seen before in OCZ's lineup: The larger 120GB and 250GB SSD's have different, better, faster peak Write specs than the smaller 60GB model. (200Mbps writes for the larger drives vs. 125Mbps for the 60GB) -- tho all claim 220Mbps Reads. These larger size drives aren't shipping yet at Amazon.com, but the 60GB version is listed as 1-3 day shipping.
