Review: Sony MPD-AP20U: Portable CD-RW/DVD-ROM Drive with MP3 Inside!

External optical drives occupy a special place among the CD/DVD-ROM devices. They offer mobility, which is one of the values of our today’s life. There are not too many models like that in the market yet. On the other hand, they are not rarities and their number is on the rise rather than otherwise. Although, not every external optical drive can be called compact and light enough to carry around with you.

We wonder if it is possible to design a really miniature CD-RW drive, capable of working with the entire range of standard disks? Sony came up with a solution: here is a really small optical combo-drive supporting the whole range of disk standards and offering wide functionality. It is Sony MPD-AP20U.
