RCA DS4290RE DIRECTV/UltimateTV Satellite System with Built-In 35-Hour Digital Video Recorder and Free Pro-Installationsee Terms and Conditions)
Beats Tivo
Bought the Ultimate TV for myself (w/ DirecTV) and helped a friend buy a Tivo (she knew the name and wanted Tivo, not any knock-offs).<br />The UltimateTV compression algorithm seems a lot better than her Tivo (it's working with digital cable).  She has a lot of pixelation, and even at the lowest quality setting, her 35 hour Tivo can't record as much as my 35 hour UltimateTV (?? why I don't know)<br />I can't speak highly enough about UltimateTV.<BR>The graphics aren't pretty, but the UI is good.<br />Hope this helps you make a buying decision.  I'm back on the site right now buying another unit for my dad. That alone proves I'm a believer.
