vestax vrx2000
This is pretty funky. Vestax makers of fine turntablist gear have announced the VRX2000. The 2000 bit makes it sound faster for sure yeah? For sure. Makes a lot of sense if you gotsa have that tangible vinyl thing happening. I don't dig on that so much as it tends to take the focus away from the music away and focus on a really abitrary aspect of the live performance. I do get into turntablists but I don't think it's the be all and end all.
At any rate you can cut your own vinyl using this puppy - looks pretty nice. I wonder how expensive the blanks are?
Via engadget. Check out vestax.com for more info.
Edit - according to at least one blog commentor, this isn't new. No idea if that's true or not. It's cool and probably fabulously unaffordable so on that face I'm happy to post it anyhow!

Yes, it's several years old model. DJstore.ee started to sell it in 2002 already. But some fresh (few months old) pictures of the cutter in action over here:
