news.com — Intel and others plan to release a new version of the ubiquitous Universal Serial Bus technology in the first half of 2008, a revamp the chipmaker said will make data transfer rates more than 10 times as fast by adding fiber-optic links alongside the traditional copper wires.

fiber optics are really cheap... but you can't bend them without risking breaking it.... "reinforce them" you say? with... hmmm... metal and rubber... how's that gonna be cheaper than ruber+copper cables that can bend a lot?the other big "problem" is that virtually all processing in computing is electrical... so you need your electron-shifting devices to achieve light, and then from light to electrons again. AKA Lasers or LEDs, and PINs. That's always going to add-up to the existing tech cost.

FW speeds did not increase, at least to the general public 'cause there's nothing out there to use more than USB 2.0.In the several non-mass market applications that do, there are gigabit links, 10Gbps links, and WDM (multiplying the amount of optical channels on a single fiber link)... but that's only cost effective in the long-haul mass-telecommunications environment.

Huawei deployed DWDM Transmission System B/W Netherland and UK with 80 channels each of 100Gbps channel.Hence bandwidth would become 8-Terabps.So you can download 240 DVD movies each of 2h length in just 1 second.
