On Kevin Burton's blog he's written a bunch of entries recently re: his 
experimenting with MySQL and SSD's.  e.g.: 
http://feedblog.org/2008/01/30/24-hours-with-an-ssd-and-mysql/

I think he might have posted a few other ones more recently too.  (You 
could probably also email him some direct questions too.)
