    Im just looking ahead as I will need a notebook for college next year, and there are several technologies that seem to be coming out at the same time and I would like to wait to buy a notebook that incorporates them. I was wondering if any of you guys knew anything about the release of:
    USB 3.0
    SATA 6.0
    PCI express 3.0
    Expresscard 2.0 ?
