HTML 5 Websockets will replace Comet?

Viewed 8904

It looks like Websockets in HTML 5 will become a new standard for server push.

Does that mean the server push hack called Comet will be obsolete?

Is there a reason why I should learn how to implement comet when Websockets soon (1-2 years) will be available in all major browsers?

Then I could just use Beaconpush or Pusher instead till then right?
