    The US Bios version will not flash but the Japan site version will.

    It seems that our 1st gens are still supported by Sony Japan. So yeah my Asia Pacific version is now running 112, it was running US 92 before (Asia Pacific stalled at 83)
    However, ram still will not run at 333 (maybe its a thing with Core Duo) but I would believe that this latest bios will allow me to run merom if i really wanted to as SZ4 series hardware is still the same (atleast the chipset)
