by upgrade - 12/27/05 8:52 AMTo members of CNET:
Can you please help me decide between Sony RDR-GX315,
Panasonic DMR-ES20 and Poineer DVR-320-S models.
I do to convert several VHS recorded tapes on to DVD
and be able to record new shows.
I'm lost, the more I read the more uncertain I feel as
to which represents the best value for me.
Sony RDR-GX315 is $299, Panasonic $248, and Poineer
around $ 250 as boxing day specials at several stores
in Toronto, Canada.
Can anyone hepl me out?
I will be gratefull!
Mike
I've been looking too. .

Do not pay 300 bucks for this they are available as low as 189.
The Sony 300 - predecessor to the 315 - is more favorably received by users. I found several reviews that rated it highly but it has no firewire input and I dislike that omission.
There is a good article here on Cnet you might want to read

I am still trying to decide myself what to buy and have seriously over shopped this for my use. I hope my input is somewhat helpful
