Think Rio Central only made by HP and not as good

Here is one Link

Try searching for DE100c there also is a Yahoo group for it.

You know, I have no idea! I paid a small fortune for it. I'd like £300 ideally. I'm open to offers

Radical idea I know, but why don't you plug it in and actually use it?

Well I still live at home and have a mini hi-fi - the DEC plugs into a home amp and is designed to integrate into a separates setup that I don't have. I'm also not at home much (yippee I found a girlfriend!) so I'd never get full use out of it. Besides.... I have an engagement ring to buy on Saturday

Hummm it seems to have a record button can it be used as a DVR ?? I have been looking for a 80+ Gig DVR for a while I don't want a tivo or a Replaytv just a standard DVR
(all I need it to be able to set it up to record channle XXX at YYY and play it back when I have time but I can never find a blank tape so I want a digital one, I really don't have the need to pay 10 bucks a month for someone to tell me whats on tv)

Its mp3 player only. No video. Although some have succeeded in installing windows XP onto it and doing all sorts of things

Can't you do that with the Tivo ? I thought if you didn't activate the service it just gives you some message telling you to update it when you go to the list of recorded shows.
