ReplayTV RTV5516 160-Hour Digital Video Recorder
Way better than TiVO
Don't be fooled by the TiVo ads -- this is the real thing.  Replay has made great strides in making their machine stable.  It also lets you transfer shows to a computer without anything more than an ethernet cable and FREE software.  Then you can burn it to a CD or DVD, or just tote it around on a laptop.  Can TiVo do that?  Nah.  Replay also added a new feature that lets you skip around in your shows, similar to how you can skip around on a DVD.  Can TiVo do that?  Nope.  If you have two Replays in the same house (like one upstairs and one downstairs), you can use one to watch shows recorded on the other.  Can TiVo do that?  Um . . . . nosiree!  This is one cool machine.
