Firewire speed increase soon - S3200 @ 3.2Gbits/s

The 1394 Trade Association has announced a new Firewire specification, S3200, for transfer rates up to 3.2GBits per second or 400MB/s.
The new specification is built on top of the existing IEEE 1394b standard, so the new speed grade will use existing connectors and cables, making for an easy transition to the new standard.
Final specification is expected in February 2008.
