Philips Components, a division of Royal Philips Electronics of the Netherlands, and Software Architects, Inc. (SAI), have signed a joint development agreement aimed at launching the world's first integrated CD-MRW drive and software solutions for personal computers (PCs)--adhering to the Mount Rainier Group specifications for next-generation CD-MRW drives. CD-MRW disc drives combine the convenience and reliability of floppy disk drives with the high capacity and re-writability of conventional CD-RW drives. |
Philips [...] is committed to being one of the world's first suppliers to bring these drives to market realization.
Well so this should be the substitute for the floppy drive / zip drive / cd-r / cd-rw...well let's see what comes out of this partnership. Philips is wel known for making products that never get really established in the market
