SSDs for SQL Server? Good or Bad Idea?

Hi SpiceHeads!

Has anyone had experience with using SSDs alone for a dedicated SQL server? Realize there is an upshot in IOPS performance, but I've heard that long term use sounds like a bad idea, especially in the thought of doing a RAID 1 config for redundancy.

Thinking something like the following specs:

Dell R320
Intel Xeon E5-2430 2.50Ghz Quad Core Processor
8GB RAM
2 - 500GB SSDs in RAID 1 Config

Running Windows Server 2008 R2 with SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard. 

Any thoughts?
