I just noticed this model at my dealer also and wondered how it worked. I just read the full Tom's Hardware report. It "tattoos" the disk only in an area which is unused for data, after the table of contents is laid down, so it "seals" the disk from further data being added, and a certain amount of the disk storage space is wasted. The larger the Tattoo, the more unused space must be available, and it adds considerable time to the burning process. Otherwise, it seems pretty interesting, and I could even see someone making a bit of extra income creating personalized and "art" CD-R images.
