PCI Slots

In my new Asus M2N32 SLI DeLuxe mobo, there were several PCI slots. I know about the PCI Express SLI slots (video) and two other PCI slots. However, there were two shorter slots labeled PCIx1 and PCIx4. What are these used for? Any example of devices that these can be used for?

There are cards starting to show up that use them, nothing that you probably need. Things like SATA controllers, NIC cards, TV tuners, maybe some sound cards one of these days.
