I think the closest comparison to Solid would be to the erroneous valid adjacent error rate (~0.075%). I have never worked with Solexa data, so I have no first hand impression of the error rate there. However, I found a recent publication on the Solexa 1G that says "We found that error rates range from 0.3% at the beginning of reads to 3.8% at the end of reads". That seems a bit higher than I would have expected...
Anyone have more up-to-date information?
