Sometimes, technologies that are ready for prime time don’t arrive in official, finalized form for ages. For example, although many of us have been using high-speed Draft 802.11n Wi-Fi technology for years now, it was only a few days ago that the IEEE officially ratified the 802.11n spec. Likewise, USB 3.0, or SuperSpeed USB has been working technically well for a long time now, but hasn’t arrived for widespread use in products. (If you want to learn more about USB 3.0, see Stacey’s post over on GigaOM, “Everything You Need to Know About USB 3.0.“) There are some strong signs that that is about to change, and the true arrival of USB 3.0 could change the way you work in many ways — for the better.

All the way back in August of last year, I wrote a post on the delivery of the final specification of USB 3.0, and how it would soon usher in many new conveniences. “Soon” turned out to be jumping the gun, and I’m still waiting for some of the USB 3.0-enabled devices that I want to arrive. Now it looks like we’ll see product development start in earnest.

As CNET reports, next week’s Intel Developer Forum (s intc) will include several USB 3.0-capable devices. They include a Fujitsu laptop that will exchange data with an external USB drive from Buffalo Technology, and a high-performance  digital video camera from Point Grey Research capable of streaming 1080p high-definition video at 60 frames per second to a computer.

It’s easy to underestimate how much impact a connectivity technology like this can have on all of us. I clearly remember when USB 2.0 took off, suddenly ushering in many new types of audio, video and storage devices. However, the data transfer speed improvements in USB 2.0 over the original USB technology were not tremendous.

That’s hardly true for USB 3.0, which boosts data transfer rates 10 times over current USB technology. Cameras — video and still — will take on many new conveniences, allowing users to stream content very quickly to computers. Backing up data to external USB storage devices will speed up tremendously, and there are even other benefits expected from USB 3.0. For example, simple downloading and uploading will speed up significantly. USB 3.0, unlike version 2.0, is bi-directional, meaning that it can send and receive data at the same time. Additionally, USB 3.0 is targeted to allow peripheral devices plugged into, say, a laptop to suffer fewer charge drains. Devices being charged while plugged into a USB port will also charge faster.

CNET and others expect that a big wave of USB 3.0 devices could be upon us before the end of the year — worth keeping in mind as you start preparing your holiday wish list.

What benefits are you hoping USB 3.0 will bring?

If you have to visit a water fountain and you want to drink water from a water fountain means ideally you need to bend over to reach the water flow. More often, it is not possible for all, in such situations you can use this concept called Aquatio that has been especially designed for gym and fitness center use. As this fountain is designed in the shape of bow, you can move to four inches in order to reduce the need of bending over when you want to drink water from the fountain.

Akhir November 2008 lalu, teknologi USB 3.0 akhirnya dilansir secara resmi oleh USB 3.0  Promoter Group. Mampu mendukung rata-rata data hingga 5Gbps, kecepatannya diklaim 10 kali lebih kencang dibandingkan USB 2.0 sehingga bersifat backward compatible (kompatibel dengan versi sebelumnya). Tentunya hal ini sangat penting artinya, mengingat lebih dari dua milyar perangkat USB telah dikapalkan pada tahun 2006 saja.

Ada berbagai macam bentuk konektor kabel USB ini:
- USB 3.0 Standard-A plug and receptacle (=host connector, hampir mirip dengan USB 2.0 standard yang biasa kita temui dan gunakan untuk keperluan transfer data biasa)
- USB 3.0 Standard-B plug and receptacle (untuk stationary peripherals: external HDD dan printer)
- USB 3.0 Powered-B plug and receptacle (untuk menyediakan power bagi adaptor USB tanpa butuh power supply external)

- USB 3.0 Micro-B plug and receptacle (small handheld devices)
- USB 3.0 Micro-A plug (hanya untuk aplikasi On-The-Go (OTG))
- USB 3.0 micro-AB receptacle (untuk fungsi host atau juga devices)

Enam sinyal akan diantar melalui kabel USB 3.0 – empat untuk jalur data SuperSpeed, dua untuk jalur data non – SuperSpeed. Sedangkan USB 2.0 hanya membawa dua sinyal untuk kecepatan jalur data low – speed (1,5Mbps) serta jalur data full – speed dan high – speed (berturut – turut, 12Mbps dan 480Mbps). Dengan demikian, USB 3.0 bus akan menyediakan lebih banyak tenaga hingga 50 persen untuk perangkat yang belum terkonfigurasi dan 80 persen untuk perangkat terkonfigurasi.

Menurut USB 3.0 Promoter Group, discrete controller SuperSpeed USB diharapkan sudah akan dipasarkan pada pertengahan kedua tahun 2009 dan produk konsumen pertamanya muncul di tahun berikutnya. Perangkat penyimpanan data seperti flash drive, hard disk eksternal, kamera digital, camcorder dan pemutar media digital disebut – sebut merupakan produk – produk USB 3.0 yang bakal digelontor pertama kali.

We know that you have been using the flash drives for a long time, but we don’t know that you might have use this type of flash drive. Because this is a Nano Flash Drive called EagleTec. This gadget offers FD Nano Disk USB Flash Drive, which is an ultra compact memory device with the storage capacity of 4GB to 8GB.

USB Implementers Forum telah merilis versi final USB 3.0, yang disebut juga SuperSpeed USB. Inilah inovasi terbesar dengan kecepatan yang meningkat 10 kali lipat dari 480 Mbps pada USB 2.0 menjadi 5 Gbps pada USB 3.0. Untuk memperoleh transfer rate ini, kabel barunya dilengkapi dengan dua pasang kabel tam­bahan yang terpisah dan shield­ed. Standar baru ini dapat men­girim dan menerima data pada kecepatan yang sama, tidak sep­erti pada standar sebelumnya. Koneksi dilakukan dengan lima titik kontak baru yang diintegra­sikan ke dalam konektor tipe A yang lama. Lantaran tempat ti­dak tersedia, untuk konektor mi­kro, mini, dan tipe B akan dise­diakan sebuah adaptor. Perang­kat USB dan kabel baru ini dapat dikenali dari konektor yang ber­warna biru. Masih belum jelas kapan chipset pertama dari Intel, AMD, atau NVIDIA menawarkan spesifikasi USB 3.0. Aksesori per­tama diharapkan bakal tersedia pada tahun 2010. Semua perangkat dan kabel yang lama tetap dapat bekerja maksimal dengan kecepatan USB 2.0. Mi­crosoft bakal mengintegrasikan support USB 3.0 untuk Windows 7 dan melalui sebuah patch un­tuk Vista.

We’re now one month into the new year.  When it comes to computing, this year’s CES was largely uneventful and uninspiring.  In spite of its slow start, the coming year can be a big year for the evolution of the personal computer.

In the last few months, subtle changes have been happening that when paired together make for an exciting moment in the world of computing.
Just how good can this year be for the PC?  Here’s list of the 10 big developments that could go from early adoption to market domination in the year ahead.
I, for one, welcome new 4G, SSD, dual-screen, 3D touch-screen overlords…

Number Ten: Dual Screens for Laptops

Lenovo’s introduction of the ThinkPad W700 is hopefully the beginning of a trend.

Its secondary screen is great for artists, CAD designers or anyone else who just can’t get enough desktop real estate. Voodoo’s Firefly concept, whose 4.3-inch screen is great for checking e-mail while waiting to respawn in Counter-Strike.

Number Nine: 3G to 4G

As the third generation of wireless communications becomes ubiquitous this year, it’s time to think about moving on. In Baltimore, where Sprint is rolling out a 3G/4G modem for mobile broadband, average download rates range from 2 Mbps to 4 Mbps, compared to 3G speeds of 600 Kbps to 1.4 Mbps. Hopefully you’ll see more cell phone companies offer similar dual solutions while the next generation takes over.

Number Eight: Designer Netbooks

We thought we’d seen everything with the crystal-studded Nintendo DS, but then HP introduced the “China Chic” HP Mini 100, a sultry red number designed by Vivienne Tam. And why not? These little laptops fit into pocketbooks anyway. Look for more designers to cash in as the netbook becomes a fad.

Number Seven: USB 3.0

The new “SuperSpeed” USB technology won’t hit until 2010, but its effects should be felt early in the form of Firewire’s ultimate demise. The latest MacBooks have already taken the bold step of removing Firewire in favor of USB 2.0, perhaps an indication that other computer makers will follow. If that’s what must be done to make room for 5 Gbps of data transfer, so be it.

Number Six: Touch Screens

As touchable displays take over cell phones, the door is open for greater interest in tablet PCs as well. Asus introduced the T91 at CES this year. HP and Fujitsu released touch screen laptops towards the end of last year. With Windows 7 offering more touch screen features than ever, this could finally be the tablet’s time to go mainstream.

Number Five: Cloud Computing

It’s hard to pin down how Cloud computing will change in 2009 — especially because its core principal says you can’t tell what’s going on behind the scenes — but there’s at least a proliferation of online apps like Google’s ever-expanding suite, and the corporate world is apparently keen on the idea as well.

Number Four: 3D Visual Interfaces

An Apple patent for a three-dimensional desktop was revealed in December, but BumpTop and Project Looking Glass have similar ideas in the works. With new advances in 3D imaging this year, perhaps a true virtual office space is in reach at last.

Number Three: Smaller, Slimmer All-in-Ones

All-in-One PCs positively blew up at CES this year, with Dell, Sony, Gateway and Lenovo all vying to be America’s next top model. Really, they’re all coming out winners for having so many options to choose from. Our favorite, though, didn’t come from any of these PC-making heavyweights.

Number Two: Intel Core i7

With Alienware, Dell and Gateway getting in on Intel’s latest processor, it’s clear this is the must-have for PC gamers. Gizmodo does an admirable job of explaining the nitty gritty of the i7’s might, but the processor reduces bottlenecks, enables the use of more RAM and divides up tasks more efficiently — just what you need when getting your frag on.

Number One: Solid State Drives

Later this year, Asus and Toshiba will both offer laptops with solid state drives. These read faster, are more reliable and use less power than hard disc drives, so it’s obviously something that should be implemented in more portable PCs over time. Solid state’s higher cost will prevent it from becoming the majority by year-end, but this is only their first year of availability. Once it’s accessible for all, HDD will be officially on notice.

I don’t know about you but I’m looking forward to the official release of USB 3.0. We could all use a little speed improvement when it comes to data transfer and USB 3.0 will definitely come in handy. Agilent Technologies say that test specifications for the new standard will be ratified by the end of June. The certifications are need in order for the final product to arrive to retailers so we’ll have to wait some more. If everything goes well we should see devices packing USB 3.0 by 2010.

Compatibility test specification for the next-generation USB, “USB 3.0,” will be formulated as early as the first half of 2009.
