I think it's mainly a physical spec (size, dimensions, etc.) that uses 1394/Firewire as the electrical spec. Firewire runs at 30 Mbits/sec. The idea is similar to the PCMCIA spec. for laptop plug-in cards. With Device Bay, you could have a video periperal such as a DVD drive, DVD-RAM drive, digital VCR mechanism, etc., that you can plug into your computer while it is on. Then you could pull it out of your computer and plug it into your TV set if it is equipped with Device Bay. Interesting idea -- we'll see how it flies.
