Intel sees its Light Peak technology for linking devices by optical =20
cable as potentially succeeding USB 3.0, a change that in several =20
years could mean the disappearance of a port used almost universally =20
in gadgets today.

  Light Peak can currently transfer data at a speed of 10G bps (bits =20
per second), or fast enough to send a full Blu-Ray movie in less than =20
half a minute, according to Intel. But the technology could be scaled =20
up to 10 times that speed in the next decade, Intel says.
