Freebox was overclocked with a paperclip
Freebox, we disassembled a few months ago, we offer some surprises. Many wondered what was the RJ11 connector, and we found: it gives access to the system of the Freebox, a connection via UART. We pass the details of our research, which will be featured once validated our method, but we managed to transfer the system of internal flash memory to another machine.
Once that was done, we analyzed the code and installed everything on a hard drive. As the case is based on a fairly standard x86 platform, it is fairly simple to look at how the system works. In the meantime you can install Windows, what we do not (yet) been done, we found how to access the BIOS.

WiMAX 2 was approved by the IEEE
The IEEE has approved the final version of the IEEE 802.16m standard, otherwise known as WiMAX 2. It offers a maximum throughput of 300 Mbit / s and replaces the WiMAX (IEEE 802.16e), which was limited to 128 Mbit / s. Obviously, these are theoretical speeds that do not reflect operators' offers. Today, WiMAX is restricted in many countries with offers of 1 Mbps and the signal quality depends very much on the lack of obstacles such as trees, and the distance between the transmitting antenna and receptor.
Two GTS 450 with the DDR3 at Sparkle
Sparkle has announced the launch of two new models of GeForce GTS 450: the SXS4501024S3NM and SXS4502048S3NM. Intended to "players with a tight budget, these cards boarded 1 or 2 GB of DDR3 memory (on a 128-bit bus) instead of GDDR5 memory standard GTS 450. Boasting a design owner, use the GTS 450 graphics chipset running at 783 MHz (1566 MHz for the 192 CUDA cores).
Compatible 2-way SLI, these cards have VGA, DVI and HDMI. Their exact price is unfortunately still unknown.

IPhone wants to patent the 3D photo
Apple has filed a patent application covering the use of multiple photo sensors to take pictures in 3D stereoscopic be viewed on the screen. Cupertino does not seem to immunize against fever 3D running the streets. It is amazing to see this application so that other companies are already marketing this kind of solution long ago.
This is not the first time this has happened. The control system of patents is in serious trouble. In this case, Apple is playing on a technicality. Apple believes that its technology is still new, since the superimposition of images is done through a calculation determined by measurements taken during the image capture.

X79, chipset socket LGA 2011
The future high-end Intel platform is revealed little by little. The X58 chipset will be replaced by a future x79 planned for the last quarter of this year. According to the paper published on it. com. cn, the x79 will be tailored to the Sandy Bridge processor-E LGA 2011. Designed for performance enthusiasts, it will allow overclocking of the memory and CPU.
The connection between the chipset and the CPU will be strengthened: it will be possible to dedicate four PCI-Express slots for the sole storage interfaces. Recall now the chipset is connected to the CPU in most cases by a DMI link that is other than the PCI-Express 4x, the bandwidth is too low to meet the needs of several theoretical SATA 6 Gb / s or USB 3.0.
