Gosh, fan boys can really ruin a thread.

Thanks for the post Attebery. Personally, I think it looks like a great product and has XDE... If I had more shows I love to watch, I'd buy.

(and if they were sold here)

For what? OTA?

Standard analog cable, they have SD... I tend not to trust most DVR packages given my experiences with most.. My only truely good experiences have been with Tivo & MS MCPC so I really don't recommend anything else to people (usually tivo, it's easier than MCPC).

But I do have to admit I'm totally ignorant of toshiba's products. They make good TV's and HD DVD was great, but a DVR is a totally different beast with a different required skill set.
