yep, thats the one, thanks to those that responded.

it doesnt seem to have come down in price tho, still quite pricey for
what it is, and no U2W support yet either.

from the manufacturers home page: 
 http://www.acard.com/eng/product/scside/aec-7720uw.html

it appears to only be supported on a small set of disks.
Are there any people on the list who can confirm that it works with
other drives, which have'nt been listed?
