That is one SEXXXY piece of equipment - even my girlfriend agrees.

1 Terabyte hard drive capable of storing 130 hours of HD content
HD-DVD burner - 230 mins of HD content per dual layer disc
HDMI 1.3 capable of passing 1080p, Dolby-HD and DTS-HD
Firewire and LAN

All for the price of a high-end gaming PC.

Japan release - July 14. Keep your eyes open for the US release.

@rihgt682:
The first gen Panasonic DVD recorders some years back was $3000, and this was NON-Progressive scan. Compared to that this Toshiba is cheap.

@plutonash:
If you look at the Hardware Trinity at the end of each issue of PC Gamer you will see that $1500 will get you a Mid-Level System at best. Their High-End Dream Systems (self-built) usually run from $3000 to $3500. These have the latest, greatest high-performance components available.

Japanese only,
I will save my money for a similar product.
And more than likely it will feature Blu-ray instead of HD.
And it might come in the form of a ps3!
But to each his own.

1 TB is small if you're recording HD. I recorded the last season of CSI in HD from my Motorola cable box to my HTPC and it was over 150 Gigs for 24 episodes. I have 2 external hard drives 250 Gigs each full of recorded HD material. I can find a way to fill that 1 TB fast.

' ' 1 TB is small if you're recording HD. ' '

agreed ,thats why Blu-ray is way better then hdvd ,it can hold almost twice the data per layer. Blu-ray is the real format of the high def. era.

Well people fill up their Tivo too? Sure 1 TB isn't enough for a HD movie server but for a HD-DVD recorder, I think 1 TB is just fine. But that price is a through-back!

Plus the thing is built like tank,

1TB is 180hrs of HD. That's good enough for me.
