Cendyne DVD burner now $299, anyone know who makes this?

Am probably going to pick one up as I can return it...$299 after rebate. Is this Pioneer, or who makes for them??? Thanks!

Real pioneer a04's are about 264 on the web.

Just didnt know if you had shopped them or not, least you wouldnt have to ask who's it is.

Actually I found a Pioneer a04 for $245, but I wanted to buy locally in case I wanted to return. Picked up the Cendyne, on the back it says model DVR-104, so it looks like the Pioneer.

Bare 104 for 246dollars with shipping at esbuy.com. Thats also where I get my media from...

I also picked up a Cendyne DVR-104 yesterday but haven't opened it as I wanted to clear up on some things. I was told from some friends to get the Pioneer A04 and the guy at MicroCenter swore it was the exact same. He said the Pioneer A04 is a repackaged Cendyne DVR-104. Is that correct? Like is it just as good and as fast and everything? I just would like to know what everyone thinks? Is it a keeper?

Thanks,
