DataTronics

Datatronics Technology, Ltd. was founded in 1987. The company offers External Modem, Internal Modem, USB Modem, PCMCIA Modem, Leased Line Modem, LCD Modem, IPC Modem, ADSL Modem, Rackmount Modem, Lan Cards and Hubs. Considering that data storage and duplication have become the inevitable trend of modern society over the years, Datatronics has now launched its diversified product - CD/DVD Auto Duplicator to satisfy customer needs. Datatronics at CeBIT presented the MiniCubis, a low priced duplicator for home, small office use in the $500 price range.

According to DataTronics, "...its the world’s smallest auto-loading system that could fit perfectly in any office space. Its patented tray enables users to duplicate 12cm, 8cm, and business-card discs upon their needs with one easy turn on the disc holders. The compact device combines auto-loading robotic arm and USB2.0 connection that offers a fast and hands-free duplicating process..."

Up to 25 CDs or DVDs per job, MiniCubis is designed for small businesses, music studios, as well as schools who have a need for duplication but with a small budget to spend. Its Command Set is also available at no charge to qualified software developers.

Two MiniCubis models are available:

• The MiniCubis DA5600-6030 with a 52x CD-R recorder, priced at € 499 (MSRP).
• The MiniCubis DA5600-7030 with a 16X DVD ±R/CD-R recorder, priced at € 665 (MSRP).

DataTronics also showed off a higher end duplicator, called Pronto, which works standalone, without the need for a PC. The system is "smart", meaning it can reject any bad media from the recorder and perform various other operations. Datatronics plans to offer a new Pronto system that will include USB2.0 too, so users can use it with a PC...
