Not only are they thin, but they’re USB-powered, to boot. That’s important in this ever-portable world of ours. Two models are available, one with and without LighScribe, and both come in black and white versions. Pretty typical specs, except for the size: 6.14 X 6.5 X .84 inches and .84 pounds, which is mighty nice for carrying around. They support DVD+R/RW, DVD-R/RW, and DVD-RAM, at 8X, but no HD. The GSA-E50N (non-LightScribe) will be $122, and the GSA-E50L (LightScribe) will be $136. Sounds reasonable to me.
