Date posted: 21/11/2008 The final specifications for the SuperSpeed USB 3.0 is available and a discussion of the technology is underway at the SuperSpeed USB Conference in San Jose, California. Major players in the development of the SuperSpeed USB 3.0 include, Hewlett-Packard, ST-NXP Wireless, Intel, Microsoft, Texas Instruments and NEC. The USB Promoter Group?s three-year effort to create a universal USB 3.0 culminated in the release of the specifications which is the technical road map for all developers to bring SuperSpeed USB technology to the marketplace. The Group invites developers to read the specifications and apply to become "Adopters" of the new technology. According to the USB Promoter Group, the new SuperSpeed USB 3.0 will deliver speed 10-times faster than current USB 2.0. In practice, the Group claims the USB 3.0 is backward compatible with existing USB 2.0 and will be capable of transferring a 25-GB HD movie in approximately 70-seconds. Current, USB 2.0 transfer rates for the same content will take nearly 14-minutes.
