Theoretically, the (semi-)inclusive study revealed some subtleties, and both rates and asymmetries should be calculated consistently to O({alpha}{sub s}{sup 2}), for both inclusive and exclusive modes. Exclusive b {yields} su{anti u} type of modes have asymmetries sensitive to soft FSI phases. Pure penguin exclusive b {yields}s modes have very small asymmetries, but are sensitive to new CP phases. Pure penguin exclusive b {yields} d modes suffer from a smaller BR but is compensated for by a larger asymmetry. One may possibly gain by summing over modes, and the pure penguin b {yields} d modes seem to be the most promising. Within the standard model, in general 10{sup 8} or more B`s are needed to uncover CP violation, for either the b {yields} su{anti u} or b {yields} ds{anti s} type of modes.
