Hi-Speed USB 2.0, the technology that extends the speed of the peripheral-to-PC connection up to 40 times over existing capabilities, is now market ready. In fact, dozens of Hi-Speed USB 2.0 products are now in the market in the U.S., Japan, and elsewhere. XP drivers are currently available from Microsoft. 98Se, ME, 2000 drivers are available from 3rd party vendors (Orange Micro and Adaptec). Expect to see USB 2.0 PCs shipping in Q3 2002 as Intel’s 845 chipset hit the mass market with integrated USB 2.0 controllers.
