I don't know about the above item.  I just bought a Pioneer DVR-107 
external with USB2.0/Firewire connections for $285, free shipping. 
Unlike the item above, it is an 8x burner.  It does all the varieties 
of - and +, R and RW (although not all attain the 8x speed).

I got it from ESBuy.com.  Search on item # ELPIO107USB or click 
through from the Pioneer DVR-107 icon on the opening page.  Since I 
placed my order last Saturday, the price has dropped to $283.  This 
drive comes with a bunch of PC software.  If I were ordering today, I 
would call them and ask if I could skip the software and get a 
discount on the price, since they list that option for the internal 
DVR-107, but not for the external.

I am not associated with this vendor, except as a customer.  Service 
and delivery time was good.  I have used other Pioneer drives with 
success.  In the one day that I have had this drive, it has worked 
flawlessly.  I have already copied 5 (five) whole disks.  Wow....  :-)
