The good news from Engadget is that Apple machines with this technology are to debut within a year - they say around the back to school season. A lower power version is due a year from then (in 2011) and would be a good fit for mobile devices like a tablet. The bus standard is expected to hit 100Gbs in the future as well.

This news alone is one reason I'll hold off buying a new imac till next year when all this stuff is on Macs. That's if Apple keep to this schedule, which no one but Apple knows if they will.
