Panasonic DMR-EH50S DVD Recorder with 100 GB Hard Drive Recording
How did I live without it!!!
I've had my unit for two weeks now and use it every day.  The initial setup was quick.  I didn't use the TV Guide feature because I have a DVR.  Everything else works just great.  I found the manual to be very clear and helpful -- read it before you get the unit (Amazon sent me the manual electronically as soon as I placed the order).  I did a lot of research before purchasing the unit and was hesitant up to the last minute but I now have no regrets and will definitely keep the unit.  Investigate the extended warranty they offer on the page -- I decided to go with the manufacturer's extended warrantly instead.  I highly recommend this recorder.
