Considering the costs of hard drives these days, this is another illustration that the cable industry doesn't want to spend money on last-mile infrastructure (or in this case, customer premise equipment). What is as!n!ne is that I can accept they don't want to spend the money on premise equipment, but they also inhibit their paying customers from spending money on premise equipment. How ana! is that?

Curious, how is the video stored on the drive? Is it wrapped mpeg2, mpeg4, or something completely different? Also, why keep eSATA disabled and not Ethernet and USB as well? The HDMI output is nice as someone recently started making HDMI capture cards. Oops, now I have said too much.
