Posted 07/28/09 at 10:46:13 PM by Pulkit Chandna
Fujitsu has begun shipping its first generation USB 3.0-to-SATA chip, the company announced in a press release on Monday. The MB86C30A, as the chip is called, is capable of delivering the 5Gbps maximum data transfer rate expected from SuperSpeed USB. The first engineering samples based on the chip will be ready next month. However, commercial variants will only be available next year.
The chip features Fujitsu’s AES encryption/decryption engine that supports data encryption/decryption at a rate of up to 300MB per second. The first PCs equipped with Superspeed USB are expected to become available during the far end of the year, according to the July issue of Nikkei Electronics Asia.

I love how the article is about USB 3 shipping soon which is freaking cool, but all 6 comments so far are obsessed with a stupid typo, even after it is corrected more comments are made about it..
Still...

"... the far end of the year"
The far end of the year? Even with the typo corrected... Who talks like that? The far end of the year?
"Hey Nancy when are you going on vacation?" "Oh, probably sometime in the far end of the year"
Keep saying it to yourself, the phrase will lose all meaning.
THE FAG END OF THE YEAR!
