If you put out a product that says "Firewire", you have to pay money to Apple.
Notice the large number of products that say IEE-1394 instead.

They also mention going to 3200Mbit/s in the future.

I would have a link to http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/find.cgi?KC6ETE-9 here
in my signature line, but due to the inability of sysadmins at TELOCITY to
differentiate a signature line from the text of an email, I am forbidden to
have it.
