Tiny new Panasonic DVR has Blu-ray, hard drive
Panasonic Japan has just introduced what it says is the smallest DVR with both a Blu-ray writer and a hard drive. Dubbed DIGA DMR-BF200, the device can record to its internal 320GB hard drive or burn BD-R or BD-RE discs. The DVR weighs less than 5lbs and is well under a foot wide and long, while just under 2.6 inches thick.
It has support for streaming multimedia and connect to the web thanks to an Ethernet port. Other connections include an HDMI port, RCA jacks and antenna input and output, along with an SD card slot out front. Videos are recorded in MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format, with maximum recording capacity of the hard drive at about 290 hours.
The DMR-BF200 arrives in Japan on November 15 for the equivalent of $862, but there is no indication when or if the device will arrive in other markets. [via Impress]
