Philips HDR112 Tivo Digital Video Recorder
Great!
Simply put:  The best electronics purchase I've ever made.  If I had to choose, I'd give up my DVD player &amp; Dolby Digital receiver before my Tivo.  The interface is simple (my wife picked it up easily, as well as my  parents who also bought a Tivo).  The suggestions are dead on, once you  give it a week or so to put your thumbs-up/thumbs-down picks to use.  The  suggestions are OPTIONAL, turn that feature off if you don't like it.  The  space management is great and best of all, something you don't have to  think about.  The to-do list allows you to easily verify/review upcoming  recordings.  Probably most important, my Tivo has NEVER failed to record a  show that I've told it to record.
