Intel and partners plan to release the new USB 3.0 connection with fiber-optic links alongside the copper wiring, claiming data transfer rates to be 10 times faster than the current USB 2.0.
The exact release date is unknown, but it should be out in the first half of 2008. However, Intel says to not expect products built with the new specification until 2009-2010 due to the two year lag time from when specifications are generally introduced and the availability of it.
To give you an idea, the current USB 2.0 (which is what your iPod or iPhone uses) transfers at 480 megabits per second, where as USB 3.0 transfer at 4.8 gigabits per second.
