Toshiba Releases DVD-RAM Video Recorder With Hard Drive

Japanese electronics company Toshiba has unleashed its latest creation to the public, but only in Japan before Christmas. The new device, a DVD-RAM video recording unit, comes complete with a 30GB hard drive on top of the 4.7GB DVD-RAM drive. With the unit users will be able to record television programming and edit video footage directly from the hard disk and store it to a library in the DVD-RAM for later playback. Much like the TiVo or ReplayTV, users will also be able to playback certain parts of a video while the device is still recording. The new technology comes at a hefty price however, weighing in at 270,000 yen ($2,481 USD). For more information visit Toshiba.
