I thought I would start this model specific thread for the Phillips DVDR3505/37 since I just spotted it today at Wally's Mega Lo Mart. Shelf stock was at least 15 units. Build date on the box states February 2007. Display unit was just placed on top of an RCA 8030??? (80GB HDD recorder, which was price dropped alot since last month)
To stay within forum rules, the DVDR3505/37 is less than $200.
The box specifically says SDTV tuner for the reception of Digital signals. The shelf tag says DVD Recorder w/ATSC.
I did not buy this unit, as I'm waiting for a recorder with an HDTV tuner that has pass-thru HD and only downscales to 480i/p to a DVD-DL (actually would prefer a unit with a HDD even if it downscaled to 480i/p to the HDD)
