Title: A great quality Toshiba product! Very good recorder so far.
Review: I have replaced a Samsung DVD-R135 with this Toshiba D-R400 recorder, and I have to say... This is leaps and bounds better than the DVD recorder it replaced. Yeah, this may not have a tuner built-in, but connected up to my digital cable set-top box, it upscales everything. You'd swear that all the TV stations started broadcasting in high definition, it's just that good on standard digital channels. Recording was great, was not picky about which channels it could record, even recorded HBO without hesitation. This is hooked up via HDMI to my JVC LT-32X667 32" LCD HDTV, by the way. Looks really sharp on that display. Great product, Toshiba! Shame that HD DVD didn't work out for ya, that, too was a great product.
