Industry : New USB standard for 2009 - macmusicWe already mentionned it here a year ago but it's getting more precise ! The USB promoter group has unvealed the new specifications of the USB 3.0, a.k.a. "SuperSpeed USB". It will be up to ten times faster than the actual USB 2.0 and will be retro compatible, the flow rate will go up to 625Mo per second.

However before the introduction of this standard in our machines it will passed a bit of time and the first products including these new connections should'nt come sooner as middle 2009 at best.

This leads some space for an evolution of the Firewire connections...
