The new µSSD standard should be part of the SATA Specification. However, it does not seem to be in the latest SATA Specification (Revision 3.1) released in July 2011. This specification is available free of charge to members. For non-members, it can be purchased here for 25 USD.
Sandisk is currently the only company providing products that follow the µSSD standard with its iSSD™ integrated storage device offering capacities of 8, 16,32, 64 & 128 GB and transfer throughput of up to 450MB/s via a SATA III 6Gbit/s interface.
Please note that the Sandisk iSSD seems to be only supported in Windows XP, Windows 7, and Google Chrome OS.
Samsung and Toshiba have also expressed interest in the standard and may offer compatible products in the future, according to SATA-IO Press Release.
