Finally a reputable company has produced a way to store your movies. However it does need improvement. More input options and a record function and better remote. But they will get there.

Overall this is a good deal from a more reputable seller-other than the china distributors thats available now. Which can be good or bad, but one thing for sure if it don't work, its a long way back to china. So this is a good deal. What they need to include is a record function from a video in-which also needs to be included.
