Just put a 64G Crucial m225 into my new 2.4 GHz 13" MBP. Drive came with 1819 firmware.

xbench #'s are as follows. I used superduper to clone OSX to the drive:

The battery life appears to be somewhat better with the SSD. With the display at half brightness and wifi enabled the bat calculator indicates ~12 hours.
