In case you missed it, WeaKnees is offering a HUMAX TiVo DVRs with Built-In DVD Recorder for only $49 after rebate (PDF, DVR must be purchased by 9/8). All boxes are refurbished however, they docome with a full 90 day warranty. If 40 hrs doesn’t seem like enough recording capacity, you could always spend $100 more and get one with enough capacity to store 350 hrs worth of standard definition recordings.
If you decided to take advantage of this offer, I would appreciate it if you would enter my email address (raianoat AT gmail DOT com) when you activate your TiVo.
Note these units are still eligible for Lifetime too!
