I just got an email from PCStats, here is there review of the MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU KT333 Socket 478 Motherboard

Less then six months after announcing the KT266A chipset, the much improved version of the original KT266, VIA has announced the new KT333. Good yes, but you have to wonder about the logic behind this.

The USB2.0 riser makes mention of Bluetooth because this motherboard as support for it, or at least indirectly. Based on what we saw at COMDEX fall last year, I can only assume that this is for some type of Bluetooth riser card. Connector "JBT2"is used to connect a Bluetooth module to the motherboard (I have yet to see one of these "modules" anywhere). The reason for the sticker over the last USB2.0 port is that the connector shares the USB interface. This USB port will not function when the Bluetooth module is attached to the connector.
