AN OUTFIT spun out of the University of Tokyo claims it has succeeded in transferring data using an optical connection on the same planar at 10 gigabits a second.

According to Nikkei.net, Advanced Photonics sends data between semiconductors by using a waveguide made from epoxy resin, with a converter on each side to switch the signals.

The firm will have a commercial version ready in 2008, it hopes. µ

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
