Intel has postponed the USB3.0 date for vendors until 2012 for the i3/i5/i7 line of motherboards, and for the next generation (and new socket) of motherboards.

It was postponed officially around early October 2009.

However, it will take that long for the integrated HDCP/Dolby Digital passthrough to make it to market in any significant way, as it just came to market this week with the i3/i5 line.

Set-top PCs with integrated cable cards and CPU chip integrated multiple HD monitor support should be on the market by Christmas 2012.

At which point we can finally all start looking like the slothful people in the movie Wall-E.
