I'm considering a ThinkPad X200. There's a 128 GB SSD option, and since I'm a huge fan of the Intel X25-M SSD I've been using on my older X61s, I'm thinking of going with that.
I am kind of worried because I've read a lot of discussion of SSDs online ...

Compared to the X25-M you're used to it will be a fair bit slower .
You can find it's specifications here.
It comes with a Samsung 128GB Flash SSD.

The 8-9 day wait is quite useful if you don't need the SSD right away.
Started at US$289 when it's up to US$229 now.
Price on amazon has only been going down for this SSD for the past month.

Hey guys,
I was thinking of including an SSD in my rig rebuild plan, I'm thinking of going SATA III SSD by Mushkin for $120 for 120 GB. The plan is to pair it with a Z77 motherboard. The SSD will be bought along with the rest of the rig.

You asked about "good price".
Heck the SSD probably is not as good.
They are no better than what you get aftermarket.
They are a huge ripoff.

Not in a desktop environment anyway.
I would say that heat isn't an issue for regular hard drives either .
So no, not really.
SSD's produce less heat than a regular hard drive.

I fixed the links improvement
SSD's need to be on the Sata3(6GB) ports for best speed.
I would do the OS on the non raided drives and put your apps on the raided SSD.
