Plextor - 716UF

[bruceg]

Hello,
Any ideas when this kid is gonna be out?
I already sold my 708UF in a VERY good price.
But no idea when is going to be out.
IAN, any inside info on this?
Let's hope that UF version has many of the issues that the "A" version had corrected.
Thanks!

wow! Thanks guys!
That is GOOD news!
So, i'll take that UF has the same issues that "A" version has, right?

I've seen a few of the UFs at Best Buy... like, a couple of weeks ago.. was a bit shocked to see it. I would assume they have the same issues as the A.
