Are there any benchmarks yet on the new 3GHz model? I am really curious how it stacks against the 2.8 model.

The 2.8 model scores around 7000 in GB3 64-bit so If I had to guess the 3.0 scores somewhere around 7200. Not a big difference, but still amazing for a dual core chip.

Just curious. Anyone here with a 3.0?

It clocks in at 7373 multicore, x64.

My 13" rMBP (2.8/16/512) clocked in at 7057: http://browser.primatelabs.com/geekbench3/662379
 
Does the 3.0 over the 2.8 gain any graphics improvement at all with the higher clock speed?

No, the only difference is that the CPU is clocked higher. There may be some fairly minor boost in badly optimized graphics tasks, but the GPU is the same and it runs at the same clocks.
