This would be the FIRST BLU-RAY RECORDER TO BE RELEASED OUTSIDE JAPAN (asuming no one gets ahead of them).

Such great news.

Some pretty serious storage. They haven't produced a machine yet. Lets hope they get it right the first time out.

Can someone explain to me how does that thing work? You record from TV or some other source on those 1000G storage and then it can burn BDs from stored material?

I have not read the release, but this will probably not come down in price, it will be a specialty product for IT (backup etc.). There is a major demand for massive data backup, and this is the market they are probably trying to tap.

If it works like it works for Japanese BD recorders, yes. The Japanese models are more advanced though, with dual decoders.

Dual decoders do what? You mean 2 input source decoders or something else?
