This made me laugh. Interesting what the next technology is going to be.
Thunderbolt? USB 3?

USB3 without a doubt.

I notice many of the FireWire audio interfaces call themselves Thunderbolt compatible, with an adaptor. I would be interested to know if that adaptor is just for pinout or needs logic/firmware to work. I think that the FW chipsets, like the ICE1712, are all old. I have seen the odd audio interface that says USB3 though (as part of a digital mixing console, if I recall correctly). However, USB3 will be the next set of new interfaces.

I am sure that about the time most people have bought a USB3 device (audio or otherwise) a new interface will come out so everyone can buy evrything all over again... It seems about the time I buy a new system, I have to buy all new peripherals too.
