After all this time of dragging my feet, I am finally getting a HD recorder! I keep waiting on a "better" deal to come along. $99 after rebate looks like the best they have offered in a very long time. 55 hours of HD or 300 hours of SD content. 3 tuners. 2 for Dish programming and a 3rd that gets OTA. Can record 3 shows at once while watching two more shows on 2 different TV's. I am getting rid of 2 of my older receivers that don't do HD.
Delivery is Sept 11. Bad timing, since we are going to Tomahawk that Thursday for 4 days. Guess that'll give it chance to fill the disk a bit and see how well it stores things.
It also has a new feature of supporting a USB device for moving recordings to. Another $30 or so to enable it. One time fee. Mabye if we get a lot of stuff on it, we'll go that route. Not up front.
I have not watched any HD content for more than a year. Just hate live television. Now I am worried I will run out of time to watch all the stuff I want to record! {cheers}
