I have mini DVDs.  Both Rs & RWs.  Sony Hanycam and a few Canon video cams use them.

I've never seen double-sided DLs. I've seen double-sided Rs, however,
and have even rented a few movies this way (widescreen on one side; 4:3
on the other - Air Force One was like this, IIRC).

I've never seen DS DL DVD W's either.  Standard on one side, widescreen on the other,
that's a nice configuration and too bad it's not used much. I was bummed when the
3 DVD set of Wallace & Gromit wasn't widescreen even though there were widescreen
versions. Maybe we'll see more of that DS configuration now that widescreens are getting
much more popular.


If we can do that with 5.25" media, we should be able to get better
capacity on the minis, you'd think (have you ever seen mini-DVDs?)...

I've seen mini CD's but no mini DVD's of any kind.
