Philips HDR312 TiVo 30-Hour Digital Video Recorder
Something you really NEED!
Yes, I agree with the others, this product is indeed a must-have. And to use that well-worn phrase, it really WILL change the way you watch TV. I'm totally thrilled with mine. I bought the 30 hour model and just love it!  The set up -can- be tricky, but not really, because the manual guides you  through the process completely. The guide is extremely well thought out and  presented in a clear fashion. Plus, they've included lots of accessory  hardware (cables, etc.) to get you going. I have a digital broadband signal  coming into my house, so even at the BASIC quality (30 hrs), the recordings  I get are clearer than SP on my VCR. Really. I love pausing live TV and the  best thing is having something ready to watch whenever I want. Tivo's  suggestions are really good; I've only had to thumbs-down a couple of  things. This product is GOING to catch on. You have to try it for yourself  to believe it. It's WELL worth the money. Now there's something on I like  all the time. Get it!
