Quick review

The good
160GB hard drive for up to around 90 hours of TV, attractive front panel design, effective remote and panel controls
The bad
You can’t record or time-shift two channels at once, below average picture quality, frustrating time-shifting functionality, no common interface for PayTV
Verdict
The performance of the Sharp PVR falls short in too many critical areas to encourage a recommendation
