I don't have one, and I am not an expert, but i've been interested as well. Here's the one I will get if I get one, i've seen some very good reviews. Hope this helps. Welcome to the Blu-Ray forum!

I believe that the Panasonic burner and its clones (Sony, Plextor) are regarded as the best bet.

There is a LiteOn one that I have no idea about.

The Philips has been spotted at Fry's but I believe no BD50 capability, so that is something to wach for if that interests you in the near future (ie, before you buy you second burner)

Thank you both very much...im hoping to hear more on the upcoming LG models as i find LG to be the best burners i currently use for regular DVD backups .

If you plan to watch Blu-ray movies with it, will need to make sure that the video card is up to the task as well as the CPU etc. If you want just a burner anything should do. Watch out for the for the physical interface as some of the Blu-ray drives use a SATA interface.
