No Pio 2007's?

I notice that Toshiba isn't mentioned either...

Toshiba already announced. I've posted the link before and it is not handy at the moment but the bad news was the "top of the line" Toshiba is now a combo unit with no HDD models for 2007.

Is there some hope for Pioneer and 2007? Maybe. Pioneer has typically announced new DVD recorder models in March. If you go to the Pioneer site and check out the press releases for the past couple of years announcements have come in March. It is not March yet. So there is hope.

But I am not confident.

I haven't seen anything recorder-wise from Pioneer in 2007 :-(

Toshiba did announce a few, perhaps their announcement came after the CES story was written: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showt...light=CES+2007

It's amazing how many of the sites covering electronics forget the difference between a "product announcement" and a "product release" and use the terms interchangeably, sometimes creating more confusion

Didn't Pioneer announce a few months back that they were getting out of the DVD recorder business (implied that the 640 would be their last model)?

Probably. I posted this a couple days ago:

Has there been any info out there indicating that a Pio unit like the DVR-940HX-S sold in Europe would (hopefully) be coming to America? That box appears to be the whole deal; 500gb, HDMI, DV in on the front face, 1080P. I imagine its the wrong tuner and voltage for us. Just wishing.

That would be nice but wouldn't sell very well at those prices.
