X48 on DDR3 should hit shelves aong w/ Penryn release early next year.

I can't see any reason really other then better chipset power usage (lower watts, less heat , so more room to OC, but nothing exciting w/ todays quads unles using good DDR1800. With BIOS fixes coming, X38 will at least pass up P35 in terms of DDR2 overclockability. As DDR2 nears its end, we may see better performing DDR1200 to get us through the middle or end of next year.

I think that rev 2 of the MAXIMUS FORMULA may either be a DDR3 or X48 version. Who's heard anything about this other then from Clunks living review?
