Referring to one line above from the December 7, 2011 filing:

Quote:
2) Removed Mr. Eugene van Os as Treasurer, Secretary, and Chief Financial Officer of the Company,


New information that seemingly only appeared today, despite being dated December 20, 2011:

Quote:
We have since requested on several occasions for Mr. van Os to return all the records of the Company and its subsidiaries. However, Mr. Van Os refused to hand over the records to the current management. These information and records, which we assume, are still in Mr. van Os's possession, belong to and are properties of the Company. The Company is currently seeking legal advice and shall reserve its rights to claim for any damages caused as a result of not timely receiving the documents and records from Mr. van Os.


Perhaps more interesting is the balance of the document referring to the expiration of the current license agreement with Commodore LLC on December 31, 2011, request for continuance under revised conditions, and the latest name being listed as ownership of the trademarks and IP "Commodore Brand IP Limited"

source

After a 3 thread buildup to a "Massive Announcement" on Commodore-amiga.org, said announcement was put on hold on or about the same date (December 20, 2011) as the above news from the SEC. Coincidence?

Seems to me that with Asiarim in such bad shape that Hyperion could get a license for cheap.

Asiarim 10-Q filing-Monday, August 22, 2011

One highlight:
Quote:
Liquidity and Capital Resources

We do not have sufficient resources to effectuate our business. As of June 30, 2011, we had $2,804 in cash.


And no change of note from prior filing regarding their licensee - C=USA:
Quote:
Under the license agreement, the third party is expected to pay an initial royalty of EUR 250,000 on or before December 31, 2011. The licensee started to market its range of products under the 'Commodore' brand in June of 2011 and the Company therefore expects increasingly royalty income during the next quarters.

Filing day again for Asiarim. Some of the highlights:

Increased authorized shares of common stock from 75 million to 300 million.
Ownership amounts and percentages updated.

Name change (yes, again):

Quote:
On August 15, 2011, the Board approved resolutions authorizing the amendment of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to change the Company's name to The Commodore Corporation (the Name Change)


Changed registered office of incorporation from China to Nevada, U.S..

source

No quarterly report yet regarding their licensee. The upcoming quarterly was previously announced as delayed.

This was posted a few days after the initial announcement.
There's a bit more detail about the resignations at Commodore and the history of the new officers for those trying to follow this.

@RodTerl

You are correct about this not being "new".
I had people rave to me 15 years ago about this magic.
Perhaps computing power to be truly efficient was the holdup at that time?

Hold on.. wavelet compression?.. didnt Maplin have a PCI board with that chip set on many years ago, possibly the 90s?

They said instead of the 150 to 1 ratio fro MPEG, this card could handle 450 to 1, and other such ideas.

Cant remember theprice, or where I might have the web page or mag page stored. 8(

I thought wavelet was just full FT anyway, storing the phase offsets per sample as well as the amplitude, instead of just the amplitude as DCT?

After seeing QB64 do a Million point transform in under 30 seconds on a 1.6 Ghz single core, I still would like to know whats the compression ratio for the Entire image, if instead of 8*8, 16*16 macroblocks etc.

Also.. what about the Hilbert curve prescan Ive been looking at? Turn your n dimentional data array into a fractal linear array.

Stuff infinities.

Wonder if they spotted the expired patent and thought, that looks good, well have it?

Now.. how do I load a non specific binary file into an array again?

Apparently, Commodore (parent company) is now under new management.

August 2, 2011:

Quote:
ASIARIM CORPORATION (OTC BQ: ARMC US) announced today that its Board of Directors (the "Board") accepted the resignations of Mr. Te Hwai Ho ("Mr. Ho"), Mr. Donald So Yu Ruan ("Mr. Ruan") and of Ben van Wijhe ("Mr. Van Wijhe") as directors of the corporation with effect from July 21, 2011, July 21, 2011 and July 23, 2011 respectively. Mr. Ho, Mr. Ruan and Mr. Van Wijhe were replaced as officers of the corporation.


source

Just a note about the new technology referred to in today's news, since the news only refers to "patented video compression."

Quote:
This video compression technology based on wavelet algorithms is able to dramatically reduce any type of video content or live stream including those already pre-compressed with any CODEC without loss of video quality.

Quote:
If you read Red's report on Amiga.org, they have no intention of buying Hyperion.

They do have a intention to, sometimes in the future, buy Amiga Inc and Commodore corp and unite them once again under the same banner.


source

Compared with the actual report from redrumloa:

Quote:
While Commodore USA is currently a licensee for the Commodore and Amiga name, the intention is to own these companies outright one day and to be a publicly traded company on a major exchange.

Jump to page 2 to see my post please, which follows:

My response:

Lofty goal indeed. I don't think Red or Dammy will be able to answer this one, but here's a question regardless:

The last news release from Asiarim indicating their intent regarding C=USA:
"The License Agreement is for an initial period of approximately 3 years, provided that certain financial and sales commitments are met, and can be renewed subject to fulfillment of certain sales targets and financial commitments."

Has Barry discussed with Ben van Wijhe the option of a buyout, given that the above indicates an entirely different plan from Asiarim's perspective in September, 2010.

source


So, just for the historical record...can you state for fact that the "intent" is in regard to CIC/Reunite Investments, Inc. and -not- Commodore, which gives the reader an entirely different impression?

AW interview with Mark Elbertse? [evil grin]

Roundtable with Ben van Wijhe?

Translation of the Nedfield article I linked to above:

Quote:
Nedfield and Reunite Inc reach agreement about takeover interest in
Commodore International.

Amsterdam, 10 feb 2010
The liquidator in the bankruptcy of Nedfield Holding bv and the american
company Reunite
investments inc. have reached agreement about the takeover of 51% of the
regular outstanding shares in COmmodore International BV
for 300.000 euro. Reunite Inc. keeps already 49% of the regular
outstanding shares in Commodore International B.V.

For more information over bankruptcies of Nedfield N.V. and Nedfield
Holding B.V.(etc.)


Fairly accurate?
