Buffalo's "all the cool kids are doing it" Blu-ray burner

They're just stuffing that Panasonic OEM
drive
into a USB 2.0 case like everyone else
is, but Buffalo has the distinction of selling their external BR-H2U2 Blu-ray drive for $1012, along with black and white internal versions for the equally steep $916. The drives will be shipping (in Japan, at least) early this June,
so early adopters looking for a little abuse between now and then can feel free to drop by our place to be kicked in the head and have your money lit on fire.
