Great product:
We receive all of our TV over the air (from an antenna). This product gives us TIVO like functionality without any monthly fees. We can store TV shows (both analog and digital) to disk for future viewing and use the instant tape to pause a live show.
Beautiful and Intuitive Machine:
Purchased this machine to replace a failed Panasonic..VCR/DVD with a tuner. This new machine is in a whole different class. The 160gb drive is much like a Tivo machine..

Excellent System:

Great product......works as described.....provides DVR service without fee:
We have had this unit for 3 weeks now and are very pleased. This unit is not as full featured as those with an on screen TV guide but it works well for a no fee DVR service. Just select shows to record similar to the procedures used to record on a VCR. Select time, channel and frequency and this machine will capture the show. You can edit and skip commercials. Great machine for the money and fee free service!
