And decent PVR deals out there?

My parents VHS is soon to be useless (bye bye analogue signals), their CRT TV has a built in freeview turner. They are happy with this. I have recommended they get a PVR for recording shows, but in all honesty they don't record or watch the much pre-recorded stuff.

Are there any half decent PVRs out there for a decent price.

I am expecting some decent deals on the Setana branded ones if they go belly up, in ASDA they have some Setana packages with Tompson and Sagem PVRs, I missed the £49.99 re-boxed deal some months ago.

My preffered choice would be a new Humax PVR, cheapest I have seen is £99, now that seems cheap for a decent twin tuner PVR but they do not want to spend that much!

Any ideas, links etc

Morrisons (supermarket) are doing a Techwood (is that some half arsed son of Technics/Kenwood?) for £60!!!

250GB/Twin Turner/Freeview+

Looks OK, I will see if my Ma and Pa are interested, and will let you know if its any good.
