Can somebody tell what the PAL version of the Par is currently selling for in U.S. I read that the PVR will sell for the same price but as yet I don't know how much that is. The agent in Australia wants $4995 + tax for a Par. (What a dreamer.) I'm hoping to buy a PVR towards the end of the year but would like to know how much I need to save. Thanks, Kim

I can't seem to get the conner CFA540 drive anymore, so would the CFS540A drive work with the PAR?? If anyone knows, please drop us a line! -Peter

As far as I know the only drives that we've used with the existing PAR have been the Micropolis 2217A which you may still be able to find. and the CFA 1275A -Drive which is a 1.27Gig. I don't know about those other's. Murph'

Thanx Murph' I wonder what the governing criteria for drives with the PAR is? There are plenty that seemingly meet or exceed the transfer rates, but don't work with it…. Interesting. – Peter

It's going to be a mute point once the PVR version start's shipping. Are you just now buying a PAR? Murph'
