Amazon has the Crucial M4 CT512M4SSD2 2.5" 512GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive for $350 with free shipping. Features up to 500 MB/s read speeds, up to 260 MB/s write speeds, 1200000 hours MTBF, integrated 8-channel single chip controller, and 0.1 ms average access time. Buy.com also has it for the same price.
This is a great price on one of the best (speed & reliability) SSDs on the market. I have the 512GB in my 2 year old laptop (Lenovo Y560 i7 with 8gb) and my boot time from hitting the power button to reaching the login screen is 22 seconds. Just make sure the firmware is up to date (it's really easy) because the early firmware had serious bugs. AnandTech has a very in-dept review that I recommend reading.
