Not here as much - you will see me elsewhere on a R&R site, but I'm not finding the time to come here as often. I will still pop across and do the occasional review.

I\'ve had to send two of these machines back. Both in warranty. The second as a replacement for the first model we had. They might be from Sony but our experience is one of complete lack of reliability and both machines just stopped recording and playing any disc back within a month on the first occasion, and we managed to get 2 months out of the second machine.
I liked aspects of the machines though, not least the user friendly on screen menu which I think is one of the best I've seen, but absolutely no good to you if the machine isn't reliable enough. It also set up easily enough from the box and the instruction manual is clear and comprehensive enough for most newbies into the DVD recorder market to understand.
Its just a shame we've had such a poor experience with the actual machine. I certainly cant recommend it to anyone having had the problems we've had.

Helpful, in that it'd make me think twice about getting a Sony DVR... at least your experience was within the warranty period, not within the first week after the warranty has expired ;o)
