HDD/DVD Recorder sub £150

Any advice on a £150 HDD/DVD Recorder?

Just seen this on HDUK, seems quite good, any other tips, maybe willing to go up to £200 but would have to have bells & whistles to make me shell out £50 more!!!

Well I missed out on the above offer, all stock sold now!!!

So any suggestions of alternatives for around £150

found this:

which seems to be a good offer £178, with 160Gig and Freeview, any ideas?

The only negative thing that would hold me back from buying it is it does not have RGB input which is needed if you want the best quality recordings from external equipment such as a Sky digibox...if you don't have one and just intend to record from the built in Freeview then go ahead.

As mentioned, RGB input gives the best quality when recording from an external source like Sky/Sky+ and this model does have RGB input, looks good value so I dont see any problems.
