I dont know. First a Matsushita chipset in the DQ60 and now a Panasonic in the 1670? Like the saying goes, "If it aint broke dont fix it"!:c

Those Maxell +R16X media are trash!! Neither my Benq or Plextor 716 can burn them..:S So the problem is the media itself... Can wait for those babies burning on the forum!:*

the max write speed for -r9 is 6x, on the first site it says 4x. also it looks lik the 1633s produces the pif spikes in some scans, a newer firmware would be nice. overall a nice drive, but it's too early to make any conclusion.

What about Quality Scans? It was a nice bonus for BenQ users.

Will all new BenQ drives be using a Panasonic chipset or will Philips eventually produce a new Nexperia chip that can support DVD-RAM?

When should we expect the drive to be released? Anytime before Summer? Maybe earlier?

I didn't use any Maxell +R16x media in this preview. The only Maxell media I used was the 5x DVD-RAM.

Unknown at this time. Many have speculated that Philips might be against supporting the DVD-RAM format.

I would make a guess and say late April or early March. Of course this may vary depending on your location.

Same company mate. Matsushita is the parent of Panasonic, National, Technics.

Not even details on how to get it out of your explorer shell after 'uninstalling' the program, which hides from all removal tools. Try searching for that on the Net and get unrelated results, which always happens with a search.

no trojan in 6.x beta.. and the explorer shell part is easily removed if you uncheck the context menu check bar in the configuration BEFORE deleting the executable... as for 'removal tools'.. considering the program doesn't have an installer, why would it have an uninstaller...?

I want to know that is this softwares are free of purchase for me(I am not member of this institute)? If it is not free then tell me the price of the software "CDKiLLER & TippeX Protection ID" version 6.0 or the price of membership in it.

biggest waste of money from ebuyer!
it burnt one dvd-R and never burnt one again
makes a knocking noise, and i have never tampered with it,
it burns cd-r's a treat and plays music perfect but will never write a dvd-r or dual layer or dvd+
