Plextor To Announce New PX-760 Ship Date In February
11:01 AM CST Posted By: Ian
As we reported a few weeks ago, Plextor had put their new 18x DVD?RW drives, the PX-760A and PX-760SA, on hold due to writing quality issues. The Japanese website, AV Watch has now reported that Plextor will be announcing a new ship date at the end of February. Translated from Japanese:
The プレクスターcorporation announced that on the 19th, 18 time stenography record correspondence DVD?R/RW drive "PX-760A/JP" of DVD?R (ATAPI connection), "PX-760SA/JP" (serial ATA connection) shipment time of 2 models, in late 2006 is guided February.
The PX-760 series at the time of product announcement October 17th, PX-760A had made late November sale and PX-760SA earlier December sale. But, on November 30th "in development schedule lag occurred", (the same company) thing postponing shipment to the reason. We had assumed that shipment time is announced with the decision circumstance Web sight.
At the same company, "when shipment postponement is announced, large number there was the inquiry regarding the shipment time of the product. It is the circumstance which cannot guide concrete sale time even at present time, but by the fact that next guide time is made clear, the case where purchase of this product is examined if it becomes reference information, with thinking, that it announced that it reports circumstance in late February ", it has explained the reason which reaches to the latest announcement.
Personally, I'm more interested to know whether or not the drive will be available in the US. Considering, Plextor America still has not announced the PX-750A nor the PX-755A, I'm not going to hold my breath. If you'd like to read more, the entire article can be found here.
