Since this requires fiber optic cabling, USB 3.0 will add a length of optical data cable to the mix, though USB 3.0 will retain full compatibility with USB 2.0 (and, one assumes, USB 1.0 as well). |
Talk about fast, too bad we still have to wait a couple of years. |

Wonder what kind of storage will go along with that bandwith? Probably looking at flash drives in the near future that rival the portable HDDs of today. I would like to have a 120GB flash drive!  |
