Thunderbolt I/O technology gives you two channels on the same connector with 10 Gbps of throughput in both directions. That makes it ultrafast, and ultraflexible. You can move data to and from peripherals up to 20 times faster than with USB 2.0 and more than 12 times faster than with FireWire 800. You also have more than enough bandwidth to daisy-chain multiple high-speed devices, without using a hub or switch. For example, you can connect several high-performance external disks, a video capture device, and even a Mini DisplayPort display to a single Thunderbolt chain while maintaining maximum throughput." -apple.com
A Few Years Ago Palm almost wen't belly up, its stock was plummeting as they we're still delivering products based on outdated technology. Since then Jon Rubinstein who helped create the apple Ipod, took over as CEO of Palm and was able to create a new mobile operating system from scratch called WebOS. In order to further the success of the WebOS platform they we're acquired by HP, the worlds biggest computer company and have finally announced their new line of products including the Pre3 and the HP TouchPad with WebOS .
