24x and 32x CD-RW standard slightly delayed

On its licensing page has Philips announced that the release of the 24x and 32x CD-RW standard (OrangeBook Part III v1.1) has been delayed. Many CD-RW drives already support this standard, but 32x CD-RW discs are almost not available.

The release of Orange Book part III Vol 3 v1.1 describing both 24x and 32x CD-RW media is slightly delayed. Distribution of the book is expected within July 2003. Release of the book will be announced here.
