LG Combo Blu-RAY/DVD Drive

Just seen it in person, comes in Black, looks great, but longer than the standard dvd writers, about 170-180mm in length, compared to the standared 140-150mm dvd writers.., good thing is that it features SATA Data and SATA Power connections..

If its priced anything like the other drives it'll be around £500 mark.

Where did you see it?

Even though it won't write hd-dvd does it support all the advance menu systems of hd-dvd unlike lgs standalone unit.
