Here is some good news
Forgive me for my lack of enthusiasm, but news of a new USB connection which is not compatible with old USB connections does not fill me with joy.

I may presume that it will need an adapter?

Work has begun on a new generation of USB that will break compatibility with existing connectors in order to improve ease of use and allow for thinner devices. The new connector, called Type-C, is an addition to the existing USB 3.1 specification and is expected to be finalized by the middle of 2014. There aren’t any images available yet, but Type-C will be around the size of a Micro USB plug and, like Apple’s Lightning connector, will finally be reversible — in other words, no more frustrated attempts to charge your phone with an upside-down cable.
well its a start I guess

Re: USB. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I was just thinking about that yesterday. I had my phone plugged into the computer and thought, “if Apple doesn’t mind pissing off a bunch of people, I’m sure they’d redesign the USB…”
I must be pisschick.
“This is the only connector one will need across all devices.”
Heard that before.
In comparison with CPU evolution
cable evolution has taken a very long time
Awsome!
I can’t wait to get a new computer that’s not compatible with all my peripheral devices. At least my printer is wireless.
Now making everything else wireless would be good news. Then they’d probably change wireless communication protocols.

Yep; the advocates of 10 different connection types go into a conference to develop a single standard to suit all; they leave and now there are 11 different types….

Ha.
It remains to be seen how long this marketing strategy will work,
One generation, two generations, three generations, four.
Four generations make a bunch and so do a lot more…
Tra la la, la la la la
Tra la la, la la la la… Duh.
