Indeed.  With 2.6, the kernel devs would prefer you to use the device node:

cdrecord dev=/dev/cdrw ....  (with cdrw being a symlink to an actual
device, but you can use /dev/cdrom, /dev/hdX, whatever)

The cdrecord author still prefers the "dev=x,x,x" syntax.  This was the
subject of much fighting between them.  The choice is yours though.
