Mr. Belvedere used our newssubmit to tell us that on the Dutch Philips website we can find a press release in which Philips announces their latest product, the JackRabbit Combo.
The drive is an external combo drive (32x10x40x/12x) and can be used as an external CD ReWriter, DVD player and MP3 player. More interesting is that the JackRabbit Combo can play both DVD and MP3 without being connected to a computer.
