Negative Positive
Title: A lot of promise but no delivery
Review: After a lot of reading, and especially because of the premium price for this recorder, I slowly committed to purchasing it. Now I can confirm another reviewer's comment about the poorly written manual and can add that Panasonic support is equally poor. It took the company 5 days to acknowledge my email requesting help with connecting the unit to a satellite receiver and answering basic questions about set-up. After 5 days of waiting all I have is an acknowledgment of my email but no answers to my simple questions. I've had this expensive recorder for 2 weeks now and can't even watch a DVD video on it. If you plan to connect this equipment to a satellite receiver, you might want to reconsider.
Is the review positive or negative?
