Sharp TU-T2HR32 Freeview HD recorder

Sharp are the most recent manufacturer to have released a Freeview HD Recorder. They have announced the new product will be called the Sharp TU-T2HR32 Freeview HD recorder. We have managed to get hold of some information which is hot off the press. According to Sharp, you will be able to order the new Sharp TU-T2HR32 Freeview HD recorder in May which is a month earlier than expected. We believe that they have rushed through the Sharp TU-T2HR32 Freeview HD recorder a month earlier to be in time for the World Cup 2010. The Sharp TU-T2HR32 Freeview HD recorder is effectively a big brother to the Sharp TU-T2 Freeview HD Box which was out last month. The RRP for the Sharp TU-T2HR32 Freeview HD PVR is £289.99. If you do not require the Freeview HD and are just looking for a Freeview Recorder then the Sharp TU-T1UR Freeview PVR with USB recording will also be released in May 2010 and will cost £99.99

The Sharp TU-T2HR32 Freeview HD recorder is a unique recorder. It is one of the only Freeview HD PVR boxes coming to UK market before the World cup. If we were Humax we would be worried about this product as it looks fantastic. The Sharp TU-T2HR32 comes in matt black, it has a very minimalist and clean look which is simple yet effective. Looking at the current competition, we feel that the Sharp TU-T2HR32 should be able to hold its own against the other Freeview HD Recorders currently out in UK shops. Unlike many of its rivals, the Sharp TU-T2HR32 does only have a 320GB hard drive compared to others which are 500GB. The Sharp TU-T2HR32 uses a single Ethernet port for updating the recorder and has built in ability to upscale standard definition programming to full HD.

As of May 2010, there have only been a couple of decent and reasonably priced Freeview HD Recorders (PVRs) which have been worth re-mentioning. Humax are about to release their first Freeview HD Recorder which we believe will be just as good as their Freeview HD Box. The only other manufacturers with half decent recorders are 3View and Toshiba.

Basically this Freeview HD Recorder can receive two channels at the same time and record or watch them.

We would like to point out that it cannot be used to load media, it's just for updates
