Trim is important for _most_ SSD drives.  The Intel X25M's aren't bad
without it, and the new OCZ drive looks promising if Anandtech's review is
to be believed - http://www.anandtech.com/printarticle.aspx?i=3702

I'd love to have an SSD drive but last time I checked Linux doesn't 
support the TRIM command which is important to prevent performance 
degradation over time. Anybody know when Linux will support TRIM?
