- I recently called Toshiba about a XM3301A1 and Photo CD capability. According
- to them (phone and address below), all the 3301 series are single-session Photo CD
- compatible with a software driver upgrade - software to be released in about
- 2-3 weeks. To get multi-session capability for the 3301 series requires a hardware
- upgrade along with the new software drivers - estimated cost for the upgrade was
- $100 plus your own shipping costs. They'll start hardware upgrades when the software
- driver is released.
