Mmm.... Loewe Aconda with built-in HD

Well I was looking at one of the cheaper Loewe models, but following this announcement, I think I'll get me an Aconda if the HD recording works ok (looking forward to that DTT module as well)

That is good news cerebros!!!
I think I'll be upgrading my Mimo as soon as they start to retro-fit these puppies!

Nice idea but seems a little redundant until the DTT tuner is available. Should go someway to justifying the extra cost of the Aconda over the newer models. Lets just hope the DTT module isn't expensive. I wonder what the cost of the hard drive will be for the other sets. In the meantime i am quite happy with my i-player and 240GB Tivo

Do you think they'll manage to do one of these upgrades for the Acondas/Vitros's with the older 2400 chassis ?

This sounds great, but with my luck I bet that they will do this for every model except mine
