3.3V - when?



Anyone know when is this migration to 3.3V is supposed to occur? As 
far as I can tell, only the ATX PCI PCs in our company have even the 
PCI 3.3V connected let alone 3.3V signalling.

I have a board design that requires both 5V and 3.3V - I guess I'm
stuck with using an on board regulator to get my 3.3V. It also looks 
like most manufacturers are still producing 5V signaling cards - I 
haven't even seen a universal card. Is 3.3V ever going to hapen?  
Page 121 of the bus spec appears farcical unless the timescale is 10 
years per inch.

I'm sorry if this all general knowledge but I found nothing in the 
faq and this does appear a bit fundemental.
