Panasonic to release a HD Recorder

Panasonic, a big brand in the UK for consumer appliances in the UK, have released their own HD DVD recorder. The 'DMR-XS350' is to feature HD recording to the 250GB hard drive (which I don't think is enough for HD files) which then can be copied to disk. One special feature of the DMR-XS350 is that you can watch Youtube videos and view pictures on Google's Picasa via the VIERACAST platform. Twin TV turners allow 2 programme recording, or watch 1 programme and record another. The DMR-XS350 will also feature a high definition chroma processor, which to me sound like one of the best?, is compatible with the UK's freesat service, SD memory card and USB ports, along with a power saving utility!

Want one? It'll set you back around £620 ($999)
