I’ve got two concerns about Light Peak:
One, it’s a year off for desktops and two years off for mobile devices.
Two, it seems to be playing the role of Firewire by going up against USB3, which is starting to trickle out into the market.
Now, granted, Light Peak is far more versatile than USB3, but that doesn’t ensure adoption, especially if it’s significantly more expensive to manufacture than USB3. Maybe the two can coexist, but they’ve got some overlap.

Interesting. An entire BluRay in 10 seconds? Sounds kinda pokey. ;’)
