Mmm, yeah... not sure if I'm 'excited' for it - my mouse and keyboard don't really need that kind of bandwidth and I've already got a theoretical 3-6gbit transfer for my external drive using eSATA, so usb3.0 probably won't change much for me. I just hope they keep the slots backwards compatible like they did when switching from 1.4 to 2.0 - loss of compatibility for the lose.
