The TI|1, TI|2 and Snow use USB 2.0 Full-Speed chipset, which is back compatible with USB 1.1. For more info, see quote:

The TI uses the 'Full Speed' USB v2.0 hardware chipset at 12 Mbit/s, which is incidently the fastest that USB v1.1 can achieve. Hence the confusion.

I think next would still be USB2.0, but using the High Speed (480Mbit/s) chipset instead of the current Full Speed (12Mbit/s) hardware chipset.
High Speed USB 2.0 is comparable to Firewire 400. I'm led to believe that in the early days High Speed USB 2.0 didn't have sufficiently great 'off-the-shelf' software packages for people to employ and develop, so Full Speed was chosen by Access. I could be wrong, but at least that's what I think transpired. Of course Access could have held back High-Speed on the TI as a business decision too - to create a selling point for the next iteration (successor). Full Speed was perfectly adequate for what they needed for the TI|1/2.

Agreed. USB 2.0 high-speed is well established and would provide exactly what is needed (greater bandwidth and speed) over the current USB2.0 Full Speed that the TIs use. USB 2 is so well established it would maximise Access' consumer base.

A ribbon-controller or XY-Pad might be nice, too, please! Thanks!
