Philips announced a Blu-ray burner that can also handle CDs and DVDs, and it’s called—wait for it—the TripleWriter.
It handles BR-ROM, BD-R and BR-RE media at 2x, but its downfall is the price: $1045. It includes that loathsome Nero 7, which is capable of Blu-ray activities but we found it to be as insinuating and presumptuous as RealPlayer.
If you have over a grand to blow on a burner that will cost $99 a year from now, the TripleWriter will be available in August.
