What are some of the advanced features of that unit?
I want at least dual TV tuners so I can record two programs at the
same time, with the ability to add more TV channels if I want by
buying inexpensive plugin tuner cards. I want a removable hard disk
drive of my specification (eg, WD SATA) so I can swap disks in and
out. I also want a removable DVD burner of my specification (eg, NEC
3550). I want DivX and XviD, USB 2.0. I want advanced controls like 30
sec skip forward and 10 second skip backwards, sortable tables for the
timer and the hard disk directory. I want wireless network capability
with full TCP/IP so I can connect to my LAN. I want a silent cooling
fan that really works to keep the unit cool enough that the internals
will not be damaged by excess heat. I want a 3 year warranty with
shipping paid both ways with thousands of service centers nationwide
so the service is reasonably quick. I want a lot more than that -
things I can get if I build my own PVR. Or maybe some day Dell
Computer will build it for me.
Does the 970 come with all that and more? If not, then I guess I will
just have to miss it.
