As I understand it it is basically a new train to run on the same old lines, but thanks to new technology it'll be able to go 250+km/h over newer stretches (i.e. 20-25% faster than our current "fast train", X2000). In one article linked to on that page, the guy heading the project at the Swedish Rail Authority clasim the new trains will lead to a 20-25min time saving on the Stockholm-Göteborg line.
Norway is considering real HSR (350km/h) tho, either Oslo-Trondheim or Oslo-Sweden to start with. There is economy in creating these connections if you can afford it - and Norway has all that oil-money...
