Yes, TB has potential up to 10 gigabits per second (that's bits not bytes, but fast). One advantage of USB 3.0 is that the ports will work with USB 2.0 devices and USB 3.0 devices will still work into USB 2.0 ports. OTOH, Thunderbolt looks non-compatable with other interfaces. TB's limited availabilty or a concern for backup, but this situation will change over time as more come into the market.
