At this
year's Cebit show the DUW1608/ARR was announced with
8x DVD+RW write speed and a larger 8 MB buffer size but unfortunately it looks
like these features didn't make it to the final specifications.

information about the AOpen DUW1608/ARR is available here.
The drive is already listed at several European webshops for about €120-140
but it doesn't look to be in stock anywhere
yet.
