Yes, this is not vaporware.  It has already been in production
for a few months.  However, a certain powerful company has the exclusive 
rights of testing and using these drives in their systems.  According
to sales team handling this product from Panasonic, the general public
won't see this product until November.

Ask for Steve Duffy, the "main manfor JU-3511 drives.
DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT TELL him I sent you or he'll kill me.
