I know that there are online shops that sell the BWU-300S's.

I have done some reading, Wish I could find the link on the subject, but
it seems to me that sonystyles have pulled the 8x off the market. This in EU also

Anyone heard what is going on...

I have a feeling if the article is true the demand for these were lackluster and Sony
pulled the plug on production stating that w/the 2 terabite HDD's and that the lack of
current media to keep up w/ the drives people wern't buying these.

This sucks!!! if true what do you think...

Guy's the big picture is to have research and developement to get us up though
the stages...

You know 8x,12x,16x, and up...

If this trend continues then even the development of newier frontier type diodes will be cut...

Look around even laser discussion is down... I'ts the sighn of the times, and the damn
ecrapconomy. :(

neither do I

I was trying to state that sony might be pulling there 8x on there
online retail store. If there doing this for any other reason than lack of intrest then we are in trouble...

I think the problem is the HDD is the preferd storage for now and that
blue ray disk aren't keeping up w/the devices...

If this is the case than yea 8x will be cheaper...
at the same time 12x,16x, 20x,22x, 405nm won't even be developed...

Hope I'm wrong :(... Sheesh...

is 8x currently the strongest blue diode on the market? im assuming a PHR-803T would fall into that catagory?

If not could someone point me in the right direction?

disreguard that question, an 803T is NOT an 8x lol....anyone know what"x" it is though?

not the right thread to be asking this in but there is no "x" assigned to the 803T. It's original intent was not to be used as a burning diode for coping or burning Blu-Ray discs. It is from two separate drives intended to read HD-DVD discs which are now obsolete, this accounting for its low price and availability now.

The two drives were one of the two old xbox 360 external HD-DVD drives and a computer HD-DVD drive which I can not recall the specific name of.
