Panasonic DMRE85HS Progressive-Scan DVD Player/Recorder with 120 GB Hard Drive Recording
Great advertising, but, short on honesty
Were I to do it again, I would save myself several hundred dollars and insure the unit does not have the TV Guide BS.  The hard drive recording sounds good, but what Panasonic does not tell you is:  you MUST set up the TV Guide system, even if you do not have this feature, in order to use the manual timer recording; you will be without a television for 24 hours, if all your cable goes through a cable box while the recorder attempts to download the TV Guide; you can manually set up channels (although the set up guide gives poor instructions on doing this) but still not be able to timer record.  It plays and records beautifully, but, I think better satisfaction could be had for less money.
