Benefits: apparently not many,
no current browser implements html5 completely. http://html5test.com/results/desktop.html
like css3 its currently 'do it and hope it works'
6-12 months to release browser upgrades, and 3-4 years for current windows users to upgrade to newer versions with html5 when the hardware dies

Hello....
Here are some benefites of using HTML5:-
1)The new HTML 5 video element makes it just as easy to embed video elements on a web page.
2)The new canvas element provides developers with a very powerful and very simple way to using pure Javascript to draw diagrams, graphics and dynamic animations on a web page.
3)HTML 5 provides a new SQL-based database API that can be used for storing data locally, that is client side.
4)An offline application HTTP cache that can be used to make sure applications are available even when the user is disconnected from their network.
Thnx...:)
