DVD Board Revision Hits North America

Appleguru, member at the WiiNewz forum, has spotted a "new" board revision in the states. This new revision is really the same board revision seen in Asia months back. Nintendo has taken this board and simply cut the typical 3 pins that we have been seeing for a while.

The only chip affected by this is the Wiikey, and still Wiikey installation is possible by soldering to the pin of the missing pad. In can be seen as the orange pin in the picture here.
