I think it depends on how much you multi task. When I first got my SSD it was on the weekend. The most I do outside of work is do some web surfing and listen to Itunes. The first 2 days I had it (Sat and Sun) I was kind of asking myself if it was a good idea to spend so much on a SSD. Basically I was thinking "yea, its cool that my MBP boots in 7 seconds, but was that worth 300 bucks...) I basicly had a little buyers remorse for about a week. Then I started giving the mac some heavy use and the SSD really started to shine...
Running Adobe dream weaver, then having to edit some pictures in photoshop, then back to dream weaver. then remote connection to my server at work, then Itunes, back to more photoshop. Everything was lightning fast. with the SSD and 4GB of ram I was all over the place with programs and it never gave me a hiccup and everything was blazing. This is when I was like "Damn, 300 well spent."
Moral of the story is, if you do nothing but surf the web and run Itunes, its probably not the best thing to spend your money on until SSDs come down in price. If you use a decent amount of programs at once and put ur Mac to good use, Get one!
