My flash drive records but won't do play/catchup, a hard drive, as
stated in the instruction manual, is required.

As I intend to watch some of the World Cup and might need comfort
breaks (more so as I age) and will no doubt imbibe the occasional beer
or cup of tea it will be handy to hit pause and continue from where I
left off on my return.

I have a PVR but it is not HD.  It does have the advantage of readily
allowing recordings to be copied to a computer (ref my post to Jim
Lesurf)
