Toshiba RD-17V1, world's first LCD TV with both a DVD burner and hard drive

Toshiba RD-17V1

This may turn out to be yet another one of those fancy bits of home electronics that never gets sold outside of Japan, but Toshiba has been showing off the first LCD TV with a built-in hard drive (for recording TV shows) and DVD burner (for archiving those shows after you run out of space on the hard drive). The RD-17V1, which by the way has a 17-inch screen and 160GB hard drive, should go on sale there next month.
