We can read over at DigiTimes this morning that LG let it be known they have two new Super Multi DVD burners for the Taiwan market. The internal GSA-4167B and external GSA-2164D, with recommended retail prices of NT$2,300 (US$70) and NT$4,800 (US$144), respectively. The burners have writing speeds of 16x for +R/-R, 8x for +R/-R DL (single-sided double-layer) and 5x for '“RAM. Here's a bit of news about the term Super Multi as well:
| In related news, LGETT said that LG has registered the name 'Super Multi" with the DVD Forum and therefore will require other brands to obtain LG's permission before allowing them to name DVD burners with the 'Super Multi" name. In response, Asustek Computer will first understand the details of LG's registration while BenQ will use its self-designated 'DVD Cube" rather than the name 'Super Multi," the two local makers emphasized. |
