USB 3 is supposed to be about 10 times as fast as USB 2 (~6 times faster than FW800). The first round of products last year ran into problems because they were hitting the bandwidth limits of SATA 2.0.

I do not think it is cost-saving, more like they hoped to transistion to Light Peak from FW before USB 3 took off. Light Peak is supposed to be a "super duper FW," but it will apparently not be here for at least another year, and in an intermediate form (copper instead of optical).
