Toshiba one of the prime supporters of HD DVD, has announced the SD-L912A, the world's first slim HD DVD rewriter for mobile PCs. This drive is capable of writing to HD DVD-R and HD DVD-RW media and is fully backwards compatible with all current CD and DVD formats.
"High-definition broadcasting and increasing consumer interest in high-definition televisions and camcorders are spurring demand for a high-definition experience across the entire PC and consumer electronics ecosystem," said Scott Maccabe, vice president and general manager of Toshiba Storage Device Division. "HD DVD is the best solution for transitioning to a high-definition world because it is compatible with existing DVD and CD technology. Our new rewritable drive will extend the functionality of HD DVD as a tool for creating and enjoying digital content in the mobile PC environment."
Toshiba has indicated that it will start sampling or manufacturing this new drive in July this year. Price and market availability remain unknown at this point.
