Do you know if the Envy line of laptops from HP come with USB 3.0?

At this point I'm thinking I'll wait another 1 or 2 years before I commit to buying a new laptop. I've got an HDX 18t from HP which I love to death for the most part and it has served me pretty damn well.

So I'm not looking to upgrade anytime soon. But I'd like to have a timeline of whats coming up in the future that's for sure.]]>Apr 26th 2010 11:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/samsungs-1tb-2tb-external-story-hard-drive-goes-the-usb-3-0-r/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/samsungs-1tb-2tb-external-story-hard-drive-goes-the-usb-3-0-r/
They do not. I want a Envy 17 when it comes out but I doubt it will have 3.0. I will probably wait too.]]>Apr 26th 2010 12:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/samsungs-1tb-2tb-external-story-hard-drive-goes-the-usb-3-0-r/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/samsungs-1tb-2tb-external-story-hard-drive-goes-the-usb-3-0-r/I've been holding off for some time, but I couldn't wait any longer and got a WD 2Tb external drive last week.

What's taking so long? Is it legal stuff?
It just seems that the tech has been done for a while, at least to an outside observer.]]>Apr 26th 2010 11:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/samsungs-1tb-2tb-external-story-hard-drive-goes-the-usb-3-0-r/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/samsungs-1tb-2tb-external-story-hard-drive-goes-the-usb-3-0-r/
Intel is dicking around and won't be supporting USB 3.0 in their chipsets until the middle of next year.

Why? We have no clue. See this article: http://gizmodo.com/5396965/nvidia-confirms-intels-senseless-usb-30-delay-until-2011]]>Apr 26th 2010 12:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/samsungs-1tb-2tb-external-story-hard-drive-goes-the-usb-3-0-r/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/samsungs-1tb-2tb-external-story-hard-drive-goes-the-usb-3-0-r/Part of it is the chicken and egg problem.

Currently the hardware available to make USB 3.0 devices is lacking.
