The answers to your questions, in order:
1) Yes, one exists
2) Yes, I've used them
3) With Windoze, but not Linux, due to UDF filesystem issues
4) Yes, they work great.
However, there's a big "but" here.. DVD-R drives cost about $5,000.
Not exactly in the price range for home users. We've got people doing
DVD production, so we need it for one-off's, but it's definitely not
for the average user yet.
