Sounds like a great product and I can vision it being the main contender to the DVD-recoring medium in the future but this is like all Sony type recording media; it can only be used with other sony products i.e.

Sony's Cocoon can be used with Sony's "Click to DVD" software via a Sony Vaio PC...do you have to hook it up to a Sony Vega TV to even use it?!

Jeez Sony, just let go of the consumer's t*t, you've squeezed it enough. Just standardise and we'll all get along.

I guess. I have a Tivo that was hacked and has 240 gb of hard disc space. This equates to 306 hrs in low quality and over 110 hrs in best quality. (and I did nto pay over 1000 dollars for it.) I don't have a series 2 which will let you send programs over an ethernet link.

ohh... I got confused with the title, thought it said 500 gb dvd-r! now that would of been somthing. Yes I guess this product is same concept as Tivo which as yuedana pointed out can be hacked/installed with bigger hd's.

I too do not like sony's proprietairy nature when it comes to consumer electronics. When sony didn't have such an attitude great things happened. The CD Rom and I think the Floppy disk are amongst them.

Anyone know if a unit like this will enable you to burn your recorded TV shows/Movies to DVD?? Im gonna be in Asia in Decemer and I would buy one if I know for sure that there are no DVD burning restrictions.

I have a P.C. based Windows Media Center and I cant burn any of my movies to DVD,due to DRM restrictions...
