Sounds great. I just hope that Apple and the IEEE updates Firewire or at least make Firewire-800 the standard. I don't like using FireWire 400 for my external drives.

Well at least we know it will have backward compatibility, but the problem I would see is the USB hardware like external HD's are going to be uber expensive once again. Right now the prices are at their lowest right now because of how long USB 2.0 been out for awhile now, granted it will take time for those prices to go down; however, I would think that the USB 3.0 would be in PCI card form until motherboards begin to manufacture them with that extension. Hopefully more news about this will come out about this later on.

Ya, I'd think USB 3.0 would be expensive since it has optic fibres. However, I think the prices would go down once fibre optics prices come down.
