BenQ Unveils 8X DVD Burner

Unveiled at CMP Media's Solution Provider Xchange event in Orlando, Fla., the DW800A records at a speed of 8X for DVD R format and 4X for DVD RW, according to BenQ. The City of Industry, Calif.-based company said the product can create a full 4.7-Gbyte DVD R disc in seven minutes, half the time that it takes existing 4X DVD burners to perform that task. In addition, the DW800A features 12X DVD read, 24 CD-R write, 10X CD-RW rewrite and 40X CD read speeds.

The DW800A carries a list price of $199 and is slated to ship in late September through BenQ's current distribution channels, the company said.

In other news, BenQ also is working with BMW Design Works, a product design affiliate of auto maker BMW, to produce a slimline, ergonomically efficient line of computer keyboards and mice for office, Internet and multimedia applications, said Charlene Wan, director of marketing and communications at BenQ America.

The new line is dubbed the Profile Series. Plans call for two wired models, the A122 and the A502; two wireless keyboard/mouse combos, the A800 and A900; and a Tablet PC mini-keyboard, the 52ME, to become available by the end of the year, Wan said.
