BenQ / Philips Burner Discuss, Seen BENQ 1620 PRO @ Circuit City at CD and DVD Burners forum; I was shocked to see boxes of the BENQ 1620 Pro on the shelf at our local Circuit City here in Hawaii. This is the first time I've seen it at a local retail store. The cost is $89.99 which is still expensive compared to Newegg.com.

Re: Seen BENQ 1620 PRO @ Circuit City

i've been seeing retail 1620 Pros (internal & external) at CC here in NY/NYC for a few months now...89.99 is for the internal...i'm sure the external is a little more...they don't seem to advertise/list them on the website at all though so YMMV...

Computergeeks.com was selling them at $39.99 way before Newegg.com decided to drop their price.
