Best way to record digital tv?

    I want to invest in a new tv and something to record tv.
    as far as recording goes, I have come up with the
    Panasonic EX77
    and the
    Sony HX 750
    They both seem to have good reviews.
    Has anybody any thoughts on these or any other suggestions?

    The Panasonic does not play DivX. Is this a big deal? Is this just for downloaded movies?
    Not sure about tuners either. Can you watch a different station to the one being recorded?
    Based on the above, the Sony would appear to have the edge. However I'm thinking of getting a Panasonic TV (PV70) so I'm not sure if the 'Viera' link is a feature worth having?
    How about ease of use. Do they come with some sort of EPG? How would it compare with the NTL PVR? (Are they out yet?)
    Any help comments greatly appreciated.

    Sorry, this is not an answer to your question...

    I guess an advantage of the NTL PVR is that you would no longer need the NTL digibox and you can set their DVR to record a variety of channels. I can't see how that would work with the Panasonic unless all the stuff you need to record is on the same digital channel.

    The downside with their DVR is that it doesn't write DVDs, I think.
