Get In to the 21rst century even though you can not afford Satelite or cableby sandylee1072 - February 23, 2008
Pros: I am hoping not too expensive but no price is published
Cons: May not be available to use coupon which expires after 90 days of govt. mailing
Review: I am so excited that I will now have the combination converter box/ DVR. I do not have "Pay" tv and now use 3 VCRs to record various Network Shows. I hope I can afford to buy one or two of these machines.
