For those of you who want to buy the benq dw1620pro retail version (as opposed to buying the benq dw1620 and converting it into the pro version via the new B7P9 firmware), I have just received an e-mail from Benq technical support (see below) which states that the retail version of the dw1620pro will be on sale from December 2004/January 2005. As you may recall, the retail version will be identical to the current retail version of the dw1620 except that it will have Nero 6.6 as part of its bundled software and will have the B7P9 firmware pre-installed.
