We were given an old 233MHz Thinkpad with SSD plugged into the HD slot 
(attached to a thin piece of wood).  They come in 1.8" and 2.5" sizes.
2.5" 80GB used on ebay sells for $40-50.  They don't seem to be available 
in small sizes any more.  I think ours is about 32MB.

There are bluetooth keyboards for tablets.
