Swap it for a Humax 9200T - dual tuners, and approx 100 hrs recording 
storage with 160GB drive, but some folk have put in 500Gb drives apparently. 
Also has a USB connector so you can download recorded programs, and a serial 
connector to update the firmware, which is good as the firmware available on 
the web is somewhat ahead of the on-air update (by about 3 versions now).

It does still have its quirks, but Humax are apparently listening to the 
user community.
