Plextor has launched their first portable DVD burner, the PX-608U in Europe. The stylish PX-608U is a highly portable dual layer DVD burner not just because of its size which measures 138 x 162×22.2 mm in dimensions and 450 g in weight, but also because it is directly powered by USB bus, instead of requiring a power adapter. I would even use it at home because that means no extra cable to annoy me.
The PX-608U writes dual layer DVDs at 4X, DVD±R and DVD+RW at 8x, DVD-RW at 6x, DVD-RAM at 5x, and CD-R/RW at 24x. DVDs read at 8x and CD-ROM at 24x. Bundled softwares nclude Nero Express 6 SE, a light suite of Pinnacle utilities, and 30 days trial Plextor Pro Plextols.
