Excuse me if I sound naive but surely it's not that big a thing for a company of Intel's size to assign a few of the workers in the "chipset" department to look at USB 3.0.Intel's chipset designers are focused on improving the Nehalem CPU architecture's new QPI and DMI buses, and on implementing double-speed, 5GHz PCI Express 2.0 and 6Gb/s Sata. Intel believes USB 3.0 is less of a priority than these
USB is such a prevalent technology that I woud have thought implementing added features would be seen as a priority. (Even more so than "double-speed" PCIe 3.0 (or whatever), for instance.)
"In a perfect world... spammers would get caught, go to jail, and share a cell with many men who have enlarged their penises, taken Viagra and are looking for a new relationship."
USB 3.0 won't be integrated with the chipset until later BUT you will find in on some expensive mainboards/computers (using a PCE-E link) with extra chips or add on card.
