But lightpeak will also support FW travelling along it's bus, so it should still be possible to use and support FW devices while FW devices are still around (ie, a while yet).
In the case of an audio interface, very few are maxing out an FW800 bus, you'd need a lot of simultaneous I/O (hundreds of channels) to do that, so with lightpeak the main advantage for audio interfaces is not speed as such, but more convenience and (possibly) lower latency.
But FW is not dead yet, and it's early days for lightpeak.
