Back to the original question:

The A06 works great with DVD-R and DVD-RW.

With DVD+RW there is a bug in the firmware that causes a quick format not
to work as expected. You need to wait a long time after you formatted a
media for the first time and then use cdrecord -force to write ignoring
the visible media size.

With DVD+R, it may be that there is the same finalizing problem as with
the Plextor 708
