Extradition: Kim Dotcom takes the lead, and proposes to go under conditions

Kim Dotcom is willing to go to the US authorities, but requires some guarantees.

On Twitter, Kim Dotcom - the erratic pattern of MegaUpload - sent a message to the Department of American justice, which clearly states: "Hey, it will come to the USA." No need for extradition. "It wants to bail, access to funds to pay lawyers fees and daily costs." Kim Dotcom tent so interesting but risky movement, while the extradition request US the respect will be judged in March 2013 in New Zealand and that he could be fired if case justice the rejects.

Kim Dotcom would therefore agree to make him even to American justice, under conditions. The idea being to recover access to her money, while showing to justice its good will, which could count in the judgment. Kim Dotcom cannot apparently be without that access to its funds are thawed, especially that the postponement of the extradition hearing is that extending the period during which he must take no money.

Recently, he explained to a New Zealand newspaper be riddled debts following the accumulation of millions of dollars in legal fees, while it can pay to counsel the penny. "They want to just me hang and dry me up until I have more sole support" he said. Is that Kim Dotcom expects to receive a negative response on the part of the authorities, believing that they "know that they cannot win in this case". "All I want is a fair judgment for us" said, as additional bravado.

The micro ATX under FM2 signed ASRock

While the new "Trinity" of AMD APU is not yet out, ASRock unveils two socket FM2 models.

With the next "Trinity" of AMD APU to come out shortly, ASrock prepares and shows two new motherboards with an FM2 socket on board. Micro ATX format both, we have therefore the FM2A75 Pro4-M and FM2A75M-DGS.

The first do a little more components that the second with for example six floors of the APU feed covered a heatsink to cool and must be powered by an additional 8 - pin connector. To the side of the APU, the FM2A75 Pro4-M has four banks in DDR3 memory in DIMM format for a total of 32 GB of RAM up to a frequency of 2400 MHz mode OC. Directly wired to the installed APU, there are also two ports PCI-e 2.0 x 16 which the second is wired electrically in x 4 which is however connected to the South Bridge also another PCI-e x 1 port and a conventional PCI port. In terms of connectors, this map is not at rest and offers five SATA III ports, an eSATA III, four ports USB 3.0, ten USB 2.0 ports, port multiple video outputs as the HDMI, the DVI and VGA, but also output its eight channels that support the THX TruStudio Pro and finally, a Gigabit Ethernet port.

I turn to the second motherboard by ASRock, FM2A75M-DGS that is a little less well provided, but allows the firm to indicate that the card will be much more competitive than those of its competitors at a lower price while providing a little more. Look more closely what ASRock pasted on the PCB of this motherboard. With four floors of simple food and a 4-pin power connector, this map is not made for of it, we were warned. APU will draw in two banks memory DDR3 DIMM format which support similarly 2400 MHz. Below, we have a port PCI-Express 2.0 x 16 wired to the APU, another port PCI-e x 1 and a conventional PCI port connected to the South Bridge A75. ASRock removes the version pro eSATA port and replaces it with SATA III ports for a total of six ports for storage. For connectors, although four ports USB 3.0 with two on the Panel back we are accompanied by a Dual-Link DVI port and a VGA port and output its six channels, a RJ45 Gigabit port, a printer - remember... - LPT port, and port COM RS232.

These two boards will surely be part of the first to be sold in the official of the Trinity of AMD APU release, but we were not aware of the price that will apply to these two models.

E3: A Sony Conference under anaesthesia

After met announcements of new technologies of Nintendo and Microsoft, it wondered what would respond us Sony: a spaceship, the beginnings of teleportation? Bah non... In fact, there were just games.

It is a fact: Sony showed us the game... Same full. Yet, at its Conference, to 4 or 5 hours of mat', therefore (it is tell you the State of freshness in which we wander in this beautiful spring afternoon), it was difficult to not hide a certain disappointment. Outside of a festival of titles, among which was particularly Beyond: Two Souls, the last creature of David Cage, there was no truly new announcement about the console itself: not cuts prices on the horizon, or tangible information about possible features of cloud gaming (the rumour had been state these past days the possibility of a partnership between the Japanese manufacturer and service providers like Gaikai or Onlive). Only finally granted announcement: the agreement between the constructor and HTC for the development of an application that would allow the owners of devices not Sony to access the games of its catalogue. Hmm... In addition to that it is enough coclass of Sony and ask the help of HTC in the field of mobile technologies, we will say that at times also indecent, they we in would have had much more to push to the chandelier.

The games, it told you, there were many: we talked about Beyond: Two Souls, we could also mention Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified and Assassin's Creed III: release on Vita, and The Last of Us, or God of War: Ascension on PS3. However, we were many hoped a few crumbs of information, or even an image, or even downright nice video 4 by 3, the Last Guardian, on Final Fantasy Versus XIII, or go, let's be crazy, why not a confirmation that Diablo III activities well one day on PS3, as rumoured had advanced it. In the same spirit, the Vita appeared to take a part well little importance in the ads, while the console would instead need a advertising foot buttocks to raise its sales. That said, many publishers can still strengthen the catalogue of the beast by the end of the show. It would be better.

NVIDIA Kai, the cheap 3 Tegra Tablet under $ 199

The California skier NVIDIA wants to propose, with Kai, Tegra 3 quad-core cheap to offer tablets Android 4.0 ICS to $ 199.

Jen-Hsun Huang, President and CEO of NVIDIA, had declared the beginning of the year 2012 to propose its architecture Tegra 3 quad-core with touch tablets Android for less than $ 200 from the summer.

To do this, NVIDIA has somewhat revised its Tegra 3 architecture by focusing on reducing the energy consumption of the SoC and by using low-cost components but all this without to review performance down. Kai is also more powerful, according to the manufacturer, that the Tablet competing directly under the Fire of Amazon Kindle it also available for $ 199.

We should have more information on the subject at the Computex 2012 to be held in Taipei from 5 to June 9.
