"Blu-ray burners that do their thang at 8x aren't entirely new, but Pioneer is just now deciding to follow those other guys with an 8x BD writer of its own. The BDR-203BK is fully compatible with Blu-ray, DVD-+R/RW, DVD-RAM and CD media, and can toast BD-REs at 2x, DVD-R/+R at 16x, DVD-R DL/+R D at 8x and CD-Rs at 32x. It's available now on an OEM basis across Europe for &amp;euro;250 ($314), but there's no word on when us Yanks can expect a release here on US soil.[Via CDRInfo]"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
