Power Over Ethernet Question

I know there are two versions of this: the cisco-legacy-inline-power form and the new, standards based 802.3af PoE Power Over Ethernet. I am looking for compatability issues here (is a 802.3af device going to work on a cisco inline-power device ?)

Also, the Catalyst 3550-24-PWR supports Cisco-inline-power.
The new Catalyst 3560 supports the new 802.3af Power over Ethernet.

Does the 3350 also support 802.3af PoE ?? Will he support this in the future (with an upgrade ?)
Or is it a hardware issue and will the C3550 never support 802.3af ??

I have been looking on the Cisco site, but not much information here....
any ideas are welcome,

mvg,
Geert Nijs
