@ speeds like 2.2mb per second i could very easily get my self capped in 1.2hrs << just a guesstimate

Cable FTW apart from its low up load speeds which is bearable now on their faster plans.

If only they had cable running past the front of my place.

Can't wait for 3.0!

[Madaz]

surly they didnt need to change the plug type and could of made it backward compatible with USB 2 and 1.1

[Chris#3]

Yeah, I was quite surprised when I saw the new plug type as I'm pretty sure I'd heard they were keeping the same type.

Yeah, I can see more external graphic cards, hdtv tuners and wireless internet dongles on the market utilising this tech. Would be good, however, if there were faster disk drives to take advantage of the transfer rates but by then eSATA III (6Gb/s) or even IV will have been released.

Standard usb connectors have never been to crash hot. the new design fixes a few flaws, namely the snapping of the plastic rectangular guide as well as poor connections due to infirm joints... extra connectors were required for error correction and interleave so they couldnt use the old format. I expect these would be pretty durable as theres no way you're going to jam it in the wrong way (as ive seen some USB sticks done)

good call Ben and it wont be long before we have all switched most of a prephials over to the newer better design

[Madaz]

yeah i use it sof2 and cod4 rarely the season has finished

[Madaz]

i would only need 1 finger to count the amount of times Ive played it over the last 4 weeks

my gfx card lets me down for that game so its not that much fun getting 20-30fps with low low gfx

[PREISS]

i still play it 4 - 5 times a week. pretty addictive.

sof2, i remember playin that at a mates house, lan style.
