I can't speak to boxing on one but the ones I tested a few months back were terrible versus a normal HDD (SATA/300) for just about everything. Having the drive be transportable would be the only reason I'd even bother. Considering the write latency I observed when writing small files versus any cheap old SATA/300 drive, let alone SATA SSDs, I'd not even bother.
Also keep in mind that drivers are still undergoing heavy revision and optimization.
Personally, I'd give 'em a wide berth for another 9 months or so.
