Cdrinfo.com has posted most interesting news about the upcoming first Sanyo DVD recorder, the CRD-DV1
Product Specs:

CD Format:

Re-writing Speeds: 4x, 10x, 12x (CLV)
Reading speed: 40x (CAV)

Safe-BP technology


DVD Format
Writing speeds: 1x, 2x, 4x (DVD-R)
Re-writing speeds: 1x, 2x (DVD-RW)
Reading: 16x (CAV)

Recently Sony announced it’s DDCD-format (Double Desity Compact Disc) which gives you 1.3GB storage capacity using special DDCD media and a compatible drive. Now Sanyo’s approach makes this almost obsolete as according to the source their drive does the same with regular CD-Rs: 1.3GB bytes on a 74min CD-R and 1.4GB when using a 80min media.

A very interesting but not very standard or compatible approach!
