Pioneer New Media Technologies announced that it will ship "the world's first combination DVD/CD recordable drive," the DVR-A03, to distributors by the end of May at $995 SRP. Retail distribution will follow. The external computer drive reads and writes DVD-R, DVD-RW, CD-R and CD-RW. The drive records DVD-R discs at 2X speeds.
