I am looking for a USB Device which will have a portable DVD Writer attached to it. Which companies are currently manufacturing these devices?

Whats your experience?

you're talking about an external DVD writer? I have an IBM DVD burner that came with my laptop, it uses USB 2.0 to burn, although you need to plug it in because USB 2.0 cannot send enough power for the burn process.

It supports all formats except DVD +R i believe (it may be -R)

So it includes dual layer :D

Google IBM external DVD burner and you should find it

we bought an external DVD burner and it cost us about $250USD it supports both types +/-Rand burns at 8x but it doesnt support duel layer, because that tech was not relieced when we bought it.

buy you should beable to get a great one for $300 which should include EVERYTHING you need!
