double layer burner is here

[cooll]

seem like sony is the first to produce a doble layer burner. $199 is very reasonable in term of price.

Maybe this is a dumb question, but who will bring dual layer DVD-R/RW media to the market? When will it happen?

Mitsubishi Chemical (aka VERBATIM) already has the media. They supply it for the Phillips drives, and likely the DVD that ships with the Sony(s) will be theirs too since Phillips and Sony have such a close relationship. Expect many others to enter the market too. I would expect the Usual suspects of Maxell, Memorex and Fuji to either distribute their own or rebranded media.

They should be in stores by June/July.
