At IDF09 Intel demonstrated a high-speed optical cable technology available next year that will connect mainstream electronic devices like laptops, HD displays, televisions, cameras, video players, iPods, docking stations and Solid State Drives (SSDs) to each other using optical fiber, rather than copper wires. Developed by Intel and codenamed Light Peak, this proposed technology paves the way for a new generation of extreme computer input and output (I/O) performance, delivering 10Gb/s of bandwidth, with the potential ability to scale to 100Gbs over the next decade. At 10Gb/s, a user could transfer a full-length Blu-Ray* movie in less than 30 seconds. The company intends to work with the industry to determine the best way to make this new technology a standard.

Power over the cable isn't an issue. It's already smaller, so all you have to do is put another pin in, and connect that pin to motherboard provided power. Not an issue at all cause HDMI does it already.
Apple are doing it right this time. FireWire was and still is great, but they made the mistake of having silly licence fees involved with it which limited its uptake, and at the same time they did it alone and Intel just stomped over them with USB. Remember, Intel is the biggest maker of chipsets and networking components in the world, so if Intel make it, it's a de-facto standard. Apple took this to Intel because they have the fab capacity and market share to make it dominent and work.
