Why 128 bit? We need 64 bit as the memory limit for 32 bit is 4GB, but 64 bit has a limit of approximately 17.2 billion gigabytes. What's the point?

Maybe they think that they will need it to cope with the overheads of HTML 5?

I cannot see the point unless processors are moving towards 128 Bit soon.
