So the first Toshiba HD-DVD recorder is just $1,000. That's amazingly cheap imo. £600 or less in proper money. About the same rrp as my Pan 85. I thought the first HD/BR hi-def recorders would be £1,000+ even in the States.
There's also a version with HDD that could be as much as 1 Terabyte (1,024GB!). No details on price as of yet. For more info on these players, and of the CES in general, click on the link at the top.
