Super speed: a brief history of USB 3.0, 2007-2018

@ 2009/08/04
USB 3.0 is coming, and the hour approaches when the computer and electronics industries can sink their collective teeth into a new, faster USB interface for the first time in ten years. USB 2.0, with 480Mbps High speed, launched in April 2000, and USB 3.0, with 4.8Gbps Super Speed, will launch in the first consumer devices in early 2010. As this happy day draws closer, USB 3.0-related news has come fast and brisk, and it has been hard to follow. Let's review the milestones of the past and take a look ahead to see what the future has in store for USB 3.0.

adapter for small devices would be good if ALL of them used it; but every company is using their own custom design as well for that

I think the entire history of the USB port is an example of success in the computer hardware industry (with the exception of the mess they made with the adapters for small devices).
