I've posted this about 5 times so far, but...
Formatted capacity: 113GB
Model: APPLE SSD SM128
Revision: VAM0BA1Q
Keep in mind that this is in a Macbook Pro, but it is most likely the same one put in the Macbooks.
It is speculated that this is actually a rebranded Samsung MLC SSD.

Oh wow, I just found out about Micron's new SSD that they are bringing to market. Beats Intel's SSD's for read/write performance.
250 GB/sec read AND write speeds!

Will be offered up to 256 GB. I'm sure that one will cost a small fortune.
Looks like the models that support write speeds of 250 GB/sec require 5V to operate. Can the MacBook Aluminum handle 5V, or does it require the lower voltage 3.3? Wonder if the 3.3V will improve battery life -- I didn't see how many watts each one uses.

Does Disk Utility say what it is when you click on the drive? Or how about System Profiler?
