What Video & Widescreen TV gave it 4 out of 5 stars.

The only criticism was the lack of RGB input. BUT they said it was excellent and well worth the £700 asking price!!!!!

thats a sharp dvd recorder not a pana :o lol.imho its not worth buying a dvd recrder without RGB.

Shame about the lack of RGB - but check out the price!

Cannot view reviews, some problem with Acrobat ver 6 >:(

Can this machine be made multiregion?

Anyone paste some of the reviews for me please, conclussions para will suffice.
Thank you :)

If you`re getting that dialogue about the latest version of acrobat, click "ok", close the box and proceed as normal. The PDFs take a while to load but should get there eventually.

However, if you try the following link below, you`ll find that it`s getting some really good response in the forums. And yes, I have just ordered one!

Looking at buying one of these asap but need some questions answered if u would be so kind. This doesn`t support dvdr+ does it only minus? is that a bad thing?

At home I only have a sky box no ariel (in front room) can this record off the sky box like recording off normal tv.

Much appreciated

it`s not a problem really, -r has allways been the more popular format due it being (generaly) cheaper than +r compatability is pretty much the same and the media is available everywhere (i paid £16.70p for 100 at a computer fair recently) so it`s a lot cheaper than you`re average +r or blank vhs cassette.

shouldn`t be a problem, the ariel shoul loop through the recorder just like a video recorder does, the only thing you won`t be able to record are the box office channels as these carry copy protection. you could (and should) connect the recorder via scart tho, as the quality of recordings will be much much better than those recorded via RF (ariel)

hope this helps

Hmm, I`m begining to like this model too much - it features progressive scan and a
