I just got mine Wednesday as a standalone DVR. (I want to replace my two DVR's over time.) I just love it. It's about 10x faster than the hr-22 it replaced, and the 5 tuners are awesome.Jersey Girl said:
I've seen some quirky behavior - stutters, audio dropouts, etc. - and I've heard it still misses recordings, but I'm keeping my HR-250 until I'm sure it's reliable.
