if a page contains mixed content (secured and nonsecured), browsers will complain (and rightfully so). If you want to go the SSL route, then you'll have to serve all assets over SSL too.
Also note that SSL doesn't really work with name based virtual hosts (Host:-header), so every site you enable SSL with requires its own IP address.
With addresses in general running out quickly, this might be a problem for you (or your host).
