Soon the new standard USB 3.0

Intel has announced at the l'IDF the consititution of a working group to work on the new USB 3.0. The bandwith should be around 5 Gbps instead of the actual 480 Mbps... so it would give a transfert rate of 625 Mo per second, not less than that ! Planned to allow energy savings, USB 3.0 will be compatible with USB 2.0 ports and should support an optical version .
First draft due to first semester 2008... FireWire is already shaking ;-)
