This local Dallas taper brought one of these to the Derek Trucks show last night. He said it is now his "DAT Replacement". Not exactly portable, but he doesn't care b/c he seems to only tape local shows where he can plug into the wall. (Although he did mention attempting to run it w/ an inverter and a 12v...we'll see on that). Pretty cool though....can record in DSD and writes to DVD media. Cost is something like $1200 he said.
